 * I've expanded that article, which includes some coverage of Brewer in secondary sources.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 03:16, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg I'll let another reviewer look at it now. &mdash; Coffee  //  have a cup  //  beans  // 12:26, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg This article still relies too heavily upon primary sources. It does that to such an extent that one may wonder whether enough notability has been demonstrated to let this Syntax guy keep his article. Even the hook is annotated by primary sources. Please make an effort to improve the sourcing. —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  14:42, 3 March 2016 (UTC)


 * I significantly expanded the article, integrating a lot more citations to independent sources to support the content.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 22:25, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg I'm terribly sorry, but I'm not sold. You added AllMusic links that talk (very briefly) about deepspace5, and not Syntax in particular. If that displays notability, it's inherited notability and thus does not count. You also added a text from a source called "Sphere of Hip-Hop" which does not seem to be a notable source. The same thing applies for "Rapreviews.com." I really do want this article (and its DYK) to survive, but I can't do that on the basis of these sources. —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  22:57, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I do know that notability is not inherited through the Deepspace5 mentions, that was just part of the expansion. I included more citations to the Houston Chronicle, Cross Rhythms, and CMWeb, independent sources that were already in the article. RapReviews.com is a professional review site, and is even used by the aggregator Metacritic. It is included on the list of reliable music sources found through WikiProject Albums. Sphere of Hip Hop is also a professional review source, though admittedly not as high profile as RapReviews.com. It is included on the List of reliable sources found through the Christian music project. I don't see how with significant discussions in five independent reliable sources, plus the Rap Up feature (an interview in an independent reliable source), the subject is not notable.-- 3family6 ( Talk to me   &#124;  See what I have done  ) 23:22, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg I'll let someone else take the reins here, then. I remain highly skeptical. —♦♦  AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  23:28, 3 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg I agree with the notability concerns and have nominated the article for deletion at Articles for deletion/Sintax the Terrific. I suggest that we put this review on hold pending the outcome of that discussion. Best.4meter4 (talk) 18:33, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg The article successfully passed the AFD which should allay notability concerns. The article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and has inline citations. The hook is verified to an online reference. QPQ is done. This article can be promoted. Best.4meter4 (talk) 03:22, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
