 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * sources have been updated to include more WP:RS sources. This is my second wikipedia article. and I am hopeful to cover more articles on ghanaian musicians. Cobbyannor (talk) 00:34, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
 * added more sources. in ghana most news articles are written based on comments or interviews from other musicians. I added so many sources earlier because i was trying to make the article as extensive as possible. i noticed most ghana articles about entertainers are not really extensive. with this rayoe article have added more sources and updated sources to ensure they are WPRS and also i used the Find sources: Google (books · news · to find news on Rayoe which i added as a source. for instance, this article https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/entertainment/Ghanaian-musicians-don-t-support-their-own-CHASE-334058 was found when i clicked on the news and i have added it as a source. i think the deletion tag can be removed . this discussion can be closed. thank you all for helping me to be a better wikipedia contributor. i am hopeful to cover extensively more ghana entertainers musicians. thank you. quick one example of the extensive research done.. i search for Rayoe's real name and through that i found this article https://theboombox.com/drug-trafficker-avoids-prison-despite-incriminating-rap-lyrics/ and i added it to the sources far earlier.. that helped make the article more extensive. Thank you Cobbyannor (talk) 00:46, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment: Source 1 from the article appears to be an unattributed copy of Source 5. I have removed it from the article in accordance with WP:CV/WP:ELNEVER. I think the fact that GhanaWeb published an unambiguous copyright violation speaks to the lack of reliability of that source (as a publisher), so we can disregard all sources published there for the purposes of notability.

 * I've removed two additional citations for the same reason. Actualcpscmscrutinize, talk 15:57, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * that means all citations of wikipedia where ghanaweb was used in all wikipedia articles concerning ghanaians should be disregareded.. ghana web is a big reliable source for all Ghana information Cobbyannor (talk) 17:18, 20 August 2023 (UTC)

Source assessment by Actualcpscmscrutinize, talk 16:04, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lack of coverage in reliable sources means that WP:BASIC is not met, and there is no reliably verifiable indication that WP:NMUSICIAN is met either. Note that the article contained extensive WP:BLP violations, as well as some links to copyright-infringing content. Actualcpscmscrutinize, talk 16:04, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * can you give examples of the copyright-infringing content you are talkking about?? Cobbyannor (talk) 17:19, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * The entire articles were copied from here. To be clear, this is not a copyright violation on part of anyone on Wikipedia. The people who published those sources are the ones who are violating copyright. It's just that the copyright policy prohibits linking to copyright violations in articles. Actualcpscmscrutinize, talk 17:40, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * give exact examples of the WP:BLP violations you're talking about because this seems like an attack? Cobbyannor (talk) 17:20, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * This paragraph likely violated WP:BLP; the source article is about Mohammed Amadu, which appears to be a different person with the same last name. I don't mean to attack anyone; mistakes happen to the best of us. But we need to be extra careful about policies with legal relevance, like BLP and copyright considerations.
