Mc Man Tangito

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable person. Although this article contains a credible assertion of significance, in that Tangito is claimed as the "first to win Omudioga Artist of the Year", there is no indication that this is a significant award in any manner, and there are no other claims of notability in the article. PROD declined. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:58, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Probably keep as Wikipedia is underrepresentative of Nigerian comedians. Hyperbolick (talk) 20:59, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm as much for making Wikipedia as universal as possible as the next guy, but with no reliable sources to draw from, how can we possibly keep this?  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:35, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
 * institutional problem isn't it? Could be as notable in Nigeria as a Jay Pharaoh is in the US. How would we know? Hyperbolick (talk) 02:20, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * We'd know by the presence of reliable sources, of which none appear to be available. Nigeria does have a press. And if it is an "institutional problem" (i.e. the lack of a robust press in Nigeria), that is not Wikipedia's problem to solve by ignoring the rules and allowing any and all content about Nigeria topics to be included.

 * The point comes where we have to recognize the reality of press disparity. Hyperbolick (talk) 03:24, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I suppose you and I are going to have to agree to disagree on this point. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 03:39, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. The subject fails WP:GNG and has not been discussed in reliable sources. The lack of "reliable coverage" shouldn't be used as an argument here. The List of Nigerian comedians article clearly shows that there are other Nigerian comedians with stand-alone articles. If the subject was notable in his native country, he would have been discussed.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 00:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
