non notable rapper, fails WP:NMUSICIAN. The sole reliable sources, like RESPECT are actually not reliable as they do not identify their guest posters (they allow "blog" posts, which is what the sources here are, and not from editorial staff.) Praxidicae (talk) 15:05, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

I disagree the RESPECT article was not written by a guest poster. Tiffany Hamilton who authored the article is not a "guest poster" and has several authored articles on RESPECT Magazine. Moreover, RESPECT is a reliable source and they have a Wikipedia page at Respect (magazine) Gwalkerone (talk) 17:01, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

I have created several wikipedia pages, referenced with sources not by editorial staff. This is the first time I have heard that sources need to be authored by editorial staff. The requirements for referencing a source is that is needs to be from reliable, published sources. Not necessaritly do they need to be authored by editorial staff.
