Promotional article for non-notable music producer previously deleted by AfD here. The sources are terrible, and what few of them could maybe be considered reliable don't have in-depth coverage of the subject. None of the won awards appear to be notable enough to merit inclusion by WP:NBIO instead of WP:GNG.

Note: It was also speed-kept the first time it was nominated for AfD, but this was because the nominator was banned for sockpuppeting (amusingly, the one editor who managed to speak in defense of the article before it was procedurally closed then was also banned for socking). _signed, Rosguill ^talk 01:42, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

comment It appears that the article's creator has attempted to blank this page, but has not made any arguments about why it should be kept. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 18:12, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article is a recreation of a previously deleted article by a new author. In the recreated article there are reliable sources that are entirely independent of the subject and passes the standard for WP:N and WP:MUSIC respectively.

Note: The first time it was nominated for speedy deletion, the concerns were it lacked references and independent sources of the subject. The second time it was nominated for speedy deletion, was to contest the deletion why it should be kept because it was previously deleted by a consensus decision. view log. The admin later removed the nomination tag when the article talk page was updated with the reasons why it should not be deleted.

None of the publications currently cited appear to be reliable sources, and several of them are named as being outright not reliable. The only reliable source that I see is the Vanguard News article, which is a mere mention of a song that the subject produced, with no mention of the subject. A significant amount of these articles are similarly mere-mentions of projects that the subject has supposedly worked on. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 05:13, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

More reliable sources have been added to the article and there were over 7 reliable sources that were in reliable sources already cited in the article that made mention of the subject as a Notable act. Aigbokhan Chukwuemeka Ogbeiwi (talk) 11:53, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Fails WP:MUSICBIO, as I always say, being nominated for awards like City People Awards and Nigeria Entertainment Awards does not confer notability, especially when such category is not primarily for the subject, but a song he has produced. He was not even listed in the credits by the awarding body. "Run Mad" will be a notable song for Wikipedia, but does not mean everyone on the crew for a notable song deserves an article. His nomination for the The Headies 2013 would have conferred notability, if it was for him, but its still for the song. Same way, we can have a notable film, in which all the actors are not notable or a notable actor that acted in a non-notable film.HandsomeBoy (talk) 16:08, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• comment the subject was nominated for Nigeria music Producer of the year in 2016^[1] and 2018^[2] this category is primarily for the subjects. the articleJay_Pizzle clearly contains references to other Notable awards he has been nominated for. He has been a featured subject on reliable broadcasting networks ^[3][4] Aigbokhan Chukwuemeka Ogbeiwi (talk) 18:05, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per HandsomeBoy. Not notable. Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO. — Newslinger talk 08:45, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
