AWOL (rapper)
Contested prod. Fails WP:MUSIC and general standards for verifiability when dealing with biographical articles. Lacks non-trivial coverage by reliable third party publications. JBsupreme (talk) 08:02, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Without WP:RS there just isn't anything with which to work. Movingboxes (talk) 08:09, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. At best, this is a musician known for one band. A person identified as AWOL was associated with the Nationwide Rip Ridaz in some way. Everything else about this article fails WP:V. • Gene93k (talk) 09:28, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Unsourced, and has some material that runs afoul of BLP that I just removed diff. Also as noted there are several artists who go by variations of the AWOL name so hard to distinguish even the basic sources (All Music Guide, etc.), although a real name would help. -Optigan13 (talk) 09:30, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: Unverifiable, unsourced BLP about a non-notable musician. ~ Ame I iorate U T C @ 22:06, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Uncited article about a non-notable rapper. —  Wen li  (reply here) 00:00, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as above. Unsourced BLP text which fails guidelines for inclusion.  RFerreira (talk) 18:48, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * It's hardly a BLP if he's dead. how do you turn this on  20:03, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * We can't really confirm he's dead (or alive, for that matter) given the complete and utter lack of sources. Honestly now.  RFerreira (talk) 20:25, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
