Mr.Jackpot

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The subject of the article fails WP:MUSIC because they have one album on a non-notable label, and an upcoming one on what appears to be a more notable label. Also fails verifiability requirements because none of it can be independently referenced. Also nominating the upcoming album Straight Up (Mr. Jackpot album) for which basically the same applies. - Mgm|(talk) 10:47, 4 May 2009 (UTC) Also adding:

 * Speedy delete all. I've blocked the original author for a username violation on top of the multiple hoaxes and the semi-literate comment on the talk page was left by a school IP with long history of vandalism.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 17:47, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Given the fact that the original "Jalik" article was created by a blocked user, it's safe to assume this user is a sockpuppet. I've invoked WP:SNOW and I'm deleting this garbage.  Plausible-sounding hoaxes are the worst form of vandalism IMO.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 17:53, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * For the record, User:Potatoe don created the original "Jalik" and was blocked long ago. User:Jizztube and User:Colonies2 were the socks.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 17:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm curious and as I'm not an admin I can't check, was Future (musician) Jalik? Duffbeerforme (talk) 18:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, the fellow's real name was given as Jalik Rashaad Perry. ...  disco spinster   talk  21:08, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
