Grinnin' Records

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Badly fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG; I couldn't find even one decent, independent source covering this record label. Aside from that, it also hasn't got even a slim chance of passing WP:NMUSIC either. The article creator edited Shaheen Jafargholi to show that he released an acoustic album through this label; I can't find a source to verify this in any case but, even if it is true, it still doesn't make this an important or notable record label. Certainly not one that should have an article in a general encyclopaedia.

Wikipedia is not a company directory. We should only cover topics that are clearly demonstrated to be notable. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 21:53, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete, please. Not a single reliable, independent source as far as the eye can see. As an aside, I'm surprised WP:NMUSIC hasn't laid out specific notability guidelines for record labels. In light of that, I'd argue that WP:INHERITORG still applies: a label is made notable by coverage of itself, not necessarily the artists signed to it.  Kncny11  (shoot) 23:08, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - It's as simple as I can't find any independent sources.  78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 13:17, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete the fact that an article sourced only to the subject's own website has survived 6 years would be a sad comment on Wikipedia except that articles without any sources at all have survived 16 years, so this is nothing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:42, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
