DJ JT

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Advert based on PR with no independent sourcing in sight. At time of nomination sourcing was:
 * 1. ireport by jdobypr (aka Jerry Doby). CNN iReport articles are self-published articles not verified by CNN
 * 2. top40-charts.com. Not a reliable source. author unlisted. press release from DJ JT Official Website
 * 3. ireport by jdobypr (aka Jerry Doby). iCNN articles are self-published articles not verified by CNN
 * 4. The Hype Magazine by Jerry Doby. The Hype Magazine is a PR service, not a reliable source.
 * 5. reproduction of Yahoo! Voices article by Jerry Doby. Yahoo! Voices articles are self-published articles not verified by Yahoo!
 * 6. iReach by PRNewswire. Press release, media contact Jerry Doby.
 * 7. Jerry Doby of The Urban Link "scooped" a press release from PRNewswire. Press releases media contact is Jerry Doby. This is the same press release as 6.
 * 8. The same press release again. More Jerry Doby.
 * 9. Same scoop of same press release. More Jerry Doby.
 * 10. top40-charts.com. Not a reliable source. author unlisted. press release from DJ JT Official Website. Same article on iReport is by jdobypr (aka Jerry Doby).
 * 11. same as 2

That name on most of them, Jerry Doby, is his PR agent. Pure PR of dubious veracity. The award it claims he was nominated for:
 * Winter Music Conference 2011. This one? No DJ JT.
 * Radio Music Awards 2011. Radio Music Awards? They discontinued in 2006.

All the supposed releases on big labels? Non existant or not on the label claimed. The remixes of big names? Not official if they even exist. "The No.1 DJ in Singapore"? not according to topdeejays or thedjlist. Delete and salt. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:23, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete and salt per nom. Fails to meet WP:NMUSIC and is obvious PR as the use of CNN iReport makes abundantly clear. SmartSE (talk) 09:32, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete: as per @SmartSE; this is not LinkedIn or other social media for self-promotion. Quis separabit?  15:31, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete per above - Just by reading the cite titles you can tell this is all Promotional-based!, To be blunt he's about as notable as my left arse cheek, Fails MUSICBIO & GNG. – Davey 2010 Talk 01:34, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete for now as there's nothing even in the slightest good coverage and only the listed sources and such. SwisterTwister   talk  05:32, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - nothing in the searches shows notability. Pure advert piece.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:28, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
