Advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician, whose claims of notability under WP:NMUSIC are not reliably sourced. The playlisting claims are to the local CBC radio station in his own hometown, where NMUSIC #11 requires playlisting by the entire national radio network and not just one local affiliate of it; NMUSIC #4 does not confer an instant notability freebie on everybody whose article says they toured, but requires reliable source coverage in media (i.e. concert reviews, etc.) about the tour; the only award listed here is the local Mayor's Arts Awards, not a major national award on the Juno-Polaris level for the purposes of NMUSIC #8. And half the references here are to primary sources, not notability-supporting ones, but even the other half that are actually to media outlets aren't building a strong case for NMUSIC #1 either -- four are local coverage in his own hometown rather than nationalizing coverage for the purposes of establishing nationalized notability, and even three of those are unsubstantive namechecks of his existence rather than articles about him, while the three that are more than local are a Q&A interview in which he's talking about himself rather than being written about in the third person, a 74-word blurb and a dead link in a publication which is not archived by any news retrieval databases (and is thus unrecoverable for the purposes of verifying how much it did or didn't actually say about him). None of the referencing cuts it at all in terms of establishing his notability, and nothing claimed in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to exempt his referencing from having to cut it.

• Delete, i opened all of the refs, around half are 404, the rest trivial, track listings and non independent. Google showing nothing better, nobody watching on youtube. Szzuk (talk) 13:25, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
