Fighter X

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

Prod removed by author. Non-notable artist, per WP:MUSIC. No independent coverage--sources are myspace, bulletin boards, self-generated (not WP:RS). justinfr (talk/contribs) 20:11, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. Label is owned by another nn artist, Kids Get Hit by Buses, which I've nominated for speedy deletion. Definitely not one that meets WP:MUSIC's criterion of "...one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." justinfr (talk/contribs) 20:30, 31 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment. I believe Fighter X falls in criteria #7 under "musicians and ensembles" in WP:Music. "Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city". As far as I see, Fighter X is the most prominent representative of breakcore, and probably of chiptunes in the greater Seattle area. I will search for references to support this claim if needed.

 * Yes, if you can insert any references to this effect that would be helpful. All claims must be verifiable in reliable sources to be included. Cheers... justinfr (talk/contribs) 13:20, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright well, I've found a short interview with him, and a few more articles mentioning the recent street performance at the Penny Arcade Expo (though few people seem to have known who he is), but nothing to the effect that he is a particularly prominent music producer in any genre or any local scene. I suppose for now, he's not notable enough for Wikipedia. Shadowthief0 (talk) 18:43, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
