Defex (artist)

Delete. Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a musician, based almost entirely on primary sources like YouTube and Vimeo videos, Facebook, Beatport and Soundcloud, with little evidence of reliable source coverage shown -- even the few references that are actually independent of his own self-published PR are blogs. As always, WP:NMUSIC does not grant an automatic inclusion freebie to every musician who exists -- certain specific notability criteria, and a certain specific quality of referencing, must be present for an article to become earned. Also probable conflict of interest, as the creator's username was "Defexipedia". Bearcat (talk) 04:59, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
