Michael Q Trucks

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Not yet notable WP:MUSICBIO or WP:NACTOR. None of the sources cited mention him, apart from MusicBrainz and IMDb. The IMDB link says he's a "distant cousin" of Derek and Butch Trucks, but on Wikipedia notability is not inherited. Couldn't find any coverage of him in independent reliable sources. Film roles so far are all minor. Draft:Michael Q. Trucks by article creator was speedy deleted as spam. Photo in infobox was uploaded by the (so far) single-purpose account, unclear what the connection is. Borderline db-bio and db-spam: see also creator's user talk.

 * Delete: Sources are not impressive, mostly biographical listings. I don't find mentions of his songs or acting roles, only streaming sites for the music. Oaktree b (talk) 15:36, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Clarification on Article Sources and Content for Wikipedia Review
 * Good morning. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss the page.
 * 1. The citations used in the article come from reliable encyclopedia sources and websites such as grammy.com, musicbrainz (world music encyclopedia), among other world-class sources, which support the artist's recognized career.
 * 2. The article is written in a way that only contains objective information that can be directly verified from the provided sources. It does not promote the consumption of his discography or visits to his personal portals.
 * 3. It has at least 30 internal wikilinks that relate the article to 30 other Wikipedia articles.
 * I hope this clarification is useful for the article review and that the information provided by the bot "CheckWikipedia" does not give you information that may not align with the actual content of the article.
 * Thank you again for your time.

 * But these are not extensive coverage, so they don't help prove notability requirements here. We need articles about the person, not just seeing their name in an article about something else. Oaktree b (talk) 05:11, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * And the sources don't prove that the sentence says: "Trucks gained recognition for his singles such as "Stay" " is only sourced to a one line listing on an otherwise bare page. Releasing a song doesn't show that he gained recognition... Heck I've made music and uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons, that's not gaining recognition for it. Oaktree b (talk) 05:14, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: Most of the references are just listings or streaming platforms, not proper articles or reviews, and there's no mention of specific achievements that would make this person widely recognized.  Waqar 💬 16:57, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete - Good luck to him as he gets started, but all he has now are minor credits and occasional mentions in media reports about other people. Being related to famous people is not notable, though I'm so impressed that he writes songs based on personal experiences as if nobody else ever did that. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 12:19, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and others. Purely promotional, no independent RS sigcov. Jdcooper (talk) 00:52, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
