Cross-wiki spam removed from hiwiki. The person is not notable as well, in my opinion. Please review. Bencemac (talk) 09:46, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - poorly sourced at the moment, and appears to fail WP:MUSICBIO, WP:CREATIVE and WP:ANYBIO, with only passing mentions of him in the reliable sources cited. His claimed "associated act" status with Yo Yo Honey Singh and DJ Snake is weak, the only evidence being the photo taken of him with YYHS in the infobox, and a passing mention of him in another article saying he likes DJ Snake's music. The only significant coverage of him I can find of him in RS online is in this Mid Day article: [1]. Probably WP:TOOSOON. Captain Calm (talk) 09:57, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks for the in depth review of the references but as I found This which I feel is above the mark of weak ref and this made me search more about him and create the article, as there are other refs too like [2] This on The Times of India and others are there too, But I guess the Mid Day isn't considered as reliable but other refs which are cited have more thn passing mentions about him on them, ThanksDtt1^Talk 10:08, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails notability requirements with current citations. 5/9 sources are images with no notable information, one is a self-written bio, another is a link to a track list. Therefore 7/9 fail WP:RS. Scan of telegraph India stub independent, but does not provide enough information for the basis of an article. Millennium post article longer and more detailed, but 1–2 recent posts not enough to establish notability per WP:N. XVDC (talk) 11:02, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep Passes WP:GNG. The mid day article and the milennium post article constitute significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources. W42 13:40, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per Praxidicae. I missed that disclaimer on the mid-day article. W42 18:13, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• I wonder. The article isn’t very well written at the moment - literally just says he exists and basically nothing else. Would the article be better if it was expanded upon? Foxnpichu (talk) 23:38, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Foxnpichu yeah the article can be expanded as per the available sources.Dtt1^Talk 01:58, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  In that case, I'm going to say Keep, as it looks like he has enough significant coverage to warrant an article. Foxnpichu (talk) 11:31, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Probably best to move to Delete after realising the sources are not as good as thought. Foxnpichu (talk) 10:07, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep and expand as per substantial coverage in reliable sources such as Telegraph of India and Midday, that shows a pass of WP:GNG, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:05, 29 August 2020 (UTC) struck vote as refs were not independent enough Atlantic306 (talk) 23:49, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This is yet more puffed up PR nonsense. this is a two sentence write up, this is just nonsense and this mid-day piece is partnered content (ie. brand content) This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies. Mid-day accepts no responsibility or liability for its dependability, trustworthiness, reliability and data of the text. Mid-day management/mid-day.com reserves the sole right to alter, delete or remove (without notice) the content in its absolute discretion for any reason whatsoever which leaves us with Millenium Post which doesn't even have a by-line and appears to be paid for PR.

• Delete: all the sources on the article and on the net that I could find were either PR coverage or non-significant coverage. He is trying to WP:INHERENT by associating acts with other notable musicians. - Roller26 (talk) 07:25, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Wikipedia is not a source to promote people who are not notable. At least it is not supposed to be.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:26, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
