- Sean Goes Pop! (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
- Delete - does not meet standards of notability for WP:MUSIC. Claims to notability include winning prizes from "Upstate New York Songwriting Contest" and second place in the "St. John Fisher Patriotism Contest". Google search for "Sean Goes Pop" gives 35 unique results. ... discospinster talk 20:42, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Subject is wholly nonnotable. Also a blatant COI, and if you look on the article's discussion page it's obvious that canvassing has occurred off the site as users rallied there to 'save' the article. The notable blue links in the article are of bands/people that have influenced the musician, but have no reciprocal relationship to him. Themfromspace (talk) 20:47, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Themfromspace. It's essentially self-promotion. WesleyDodds (talk) 21:56, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- And Sean Goes Delete! for failing notability as per WP:MUSIC. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 23:09, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete' A case of Someone mistaking Wikipedia as a social networking service. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 01:45, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per any of the above. Sorry Sean, not yet. tomasz. 13:58, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete COI and nonnotable. Templarion1 (talk) 16:47, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Surprised it's not speedied; a 17-year-old writing about himself isn't really Wikipedia material, regardless of the content. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 20:45, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Jpgordon, if you are referring to the specific "blatant advertising" criteria for speedy deletion, I do not believe this article meets it. The language of the article does not suggest, to me, a Sean Goes Pop!-is-the-greatest-type article. However, I do not believe this article meets WP:MUSIC, as I have found not found multiple, reliable, independent, and secondary sources about Sean Goes Pop! Maybe he will be notable enough for an article in the future, but I have determined that he is not notable enough atm. JEdgarFreeman (talk) 23:09, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I made this page. Just delete it. JEdgarFreeman, I believe you have found the editor who gave us the un-fair "promotional" banners, when there was no promotion on the site whatsoever. But eitherway, it is ok that this page is deleted. It was only created because fans on his myspace page demanded one. I helped create the page. Somewhat of a bad idea eh? Sorry if this "UPSETS" any of you, although it seems that its nothing to get horribly "UPSET" over. PaulGIOMann (talk) 02:06, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
