Josey Greenwell

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Sources are either unreliable (Queermeup.com, Josepvinaixa.com, homorazzi.com), make no mention of him (the Country Music Is Love source), or are personal sites (Tumblr, Eventful). A Google News search found no reliable non-passing mentions. Article smacks of weasel-wording, ref-bombing, and general puffery. Very little to no notability asserted.

 * Delete as too soon. Too many of the sources seem to be unreliable such as blogs and he appears to be better known as a social network-based performer. Google News searches have provided little, searches for "Josey Greenwell singer" (including adding "gay") provided nothing but a search for Colgate Country Showdown provided this (an event listing). A different search adding "model" irrelevantly provided the event listing again but also provided a new result, this news article mentioning the 2009 Music City Madness. A search for Little Big Town also provided unreliable sources including suite101.com and minor results here (event press release) and here (allaccess.com) for opening for Little Big Town. Additional searches provided nothing substantial. He may be well known in the gay community at this time but he is not notable for Wikipedia yet. SwisterTwister   talk  22:51, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Article was written by a spa.  There are details such as when the topic took trips to Nashville and when he locked himself in his dorm room that are unsourced and presumably WP:OR.  On the first page of Google hits for [Josey Greenwell], the only potential source I saw was from DNA (magazine), but the article itself is only a few paragraphs, all of which are primary material provided by the topic.  Article fails WP:V, WP:OR, and WP:N.  Unscintillating (talk) 02:35, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
