Andres Rivera Music

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Many claims are made about this singer, none of which I can find verification of. There does not seem to be a "BBC Award" for "New Artist" (at least not that I can find). Confirmation of the award for "Best Latin Song" (from what organization?) is similarly elusive. He supposedly had a number one song, but the article does not specify what chart.

The only Google results for that are relevant are submit-it-yourself sites like MySpace and LinkedIn. ... disco spinster   talk  00:36, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as entirely unverifiable; no reliable sources outside of wiki- and myspace-mirrors. Half of the claims seem like wishful thinking, to me.  one brave  monkey  13:33, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. This article has been recreated many times under slightly different names: both Andrés Rivera (singer) and Andres Rivera (Singer) are salted. One very brief AfD was started in January: Articles_for_deletion/Andr%C3%A9s_Rivera_(singer). The original versions were mostly composed of material copied from Tyler James with a few changes of song titles and such, but he has mixed it up a bit more now. As everyone above has stated, the claims are all unverifiable -- if he really won a BBC Award, or had ever been signed to Island Records etc, it would be easy to find sources mentioning him.
