Angel Rada
This is a vanity article, citing no references. I can't find any media reference so far yet online, except self-made publicity on discussion forums or music communities. Moreover, this article has been removed before, see Articles for deletion/Angel Rada. LimoWreck 16:31, 30 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep Seems to be an artist locally known in South America, has quite a number of Google hits.
 * that 's the problem, have you checked those google hits ? You should also do a good Google check: add "Angel Rada" between quotes : 606 results, Usually some unknown communities, forums, sites where you can add yourself etc., sites where one can add his own mp3s, a homepage on geocities, etc... I've written and read articles about lots of "exotic", old or unknown artist, and even in those lesser known cases I could find references to serious sources... I'd like to see some serious reviews and articles about this man; since we can't judge if he's a million selling artist, or a local artist promoting his work through the internet... --LimoWreck 16:55, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - vanity page, notability not backed up by any concrete sources. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 17:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The user who created this identifies himself as User:Angelrada, and his only other edits seem to have been adding links to Angel Rada in relevant articles and defending this article when someone objected to it. Thus, severe problems with Autobiography and close to being a vanity piece (although I am reluctant to actually call this vanity). - Andre Engels 17:10, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * As an extra reason for delete: recreated after being deleted in an earlier AfD, see Articles for deletion/Angel Rada. - Andre Engels 17:18, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. I added references, which seem to be add up to notability. Seems to have lots of credentials. --TruthbringerToronto 17:53, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
 * don't know, that are exactly those google "references" i talked about: online communities where one can add his own music...


 * Delete per nom. Fails WP:MUSIC.  Most Ghits are from download sites, with a lot of the same quoted biographical material everywhere.  References listed in article are personal commentary from downloaders, rather than having multiple non-trivial articles by unconnected sources.  Unable to find much-quoted "El Nacional" article online except from his bios.  Tychocat 18:13, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
