Kio dj

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Reviewed through NPP. BLP of a DJ and record producer, sources consist of:  reprints of the same press release, one in Spanish; IMDB and Wikitubia (WP:UGC); some interviews (WP:INTERVIEW); a playlist he made; and obvious self-written promotional material. Nothing better found through WP:BEFORE. No indication of passing WP:GNG or WP:NCREATIVE. Spicy (talk) 20:46, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment: although the subject is from Colombia, as noted in the article he has lived for several years in Dubai in the UAE. He definitely isn't well known in Colombia – there's an article on him here in Óyeme magazine, but this is just a gossip mag and very much a puff/promotional piece, and the magazine isn't Colombian, it's based in Barcelona in Spain. I can't find anything on him in the Colombian media, unsurprisingly – I think it's more likely that the Dubai-based media will have featured him. Richard3120 (talk) 21:32, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Having looked into this further, delete. This is a purely promotional article and none of the sources provide any in-depth unbiased coverage. El Colombiano newspaper and Caracol TV (one of the country's two terrestrial TV broadcasters) are both reliable sources, but the subject is only mentioned in passing because he happened to be present when his actor friend was attacked. Latido also only mentions the subject once in passing during a biography of Karol G. Khaleej magazine and AV Magazine is the same 60-second, eight-question primary source interview. The International Business Times and FaceDXB articles are blatantly promotional press releases from the subject's management... the FaceDXB article even includes his media contact details for further information at the bottom of the article. The Q'hubo source appears to have been deleted, but I can tell you that this is a lightweight fluffy gossip magazine that makes Hello! magazine look like the New York Times. In short, there isn't a single good source about the subject. Richard3120 (talk) 19:14, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of reliable sources and because he's basically a run of the mill DJ. AfD is littered with deletions of DJs and producers. Bearian (talk) 00:33, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
