SPA re-creation of an AfD-deleted article. Some new sources, but all of them insufficient to establish notability. GermanJoe (talk) 17:32, 1 August 2015 (UTC)


 * A closer look on the new sources: ref #1, only a passing mention as part of an announcement. #2 interview fluff as part of an announcement campaign, no independent detailed information #3 passing mention with a short quote #4 trivial schedule entry #5 whatever that is, it's not independent in-depth coverage #6 VCU's self-promotional feelgood bio record. In short: All of the sources fail to be independent neutral WP:RS with significant in-depth coverage. Still far WP:TOOSOON. Wikipedia is no venue for promotion of new artists. Salt the title if it get's deleted (a new version can be prepared in draft namespace in a year or two). GermanJoe (talk) 17:46, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete I found nothing to indicate passing GNG, let alone WP:ENTERTAINER. Agree with GermanJoe that at the very best it's a case of TOOSOON, though salting might be a bit extreme. Primefac (talk) 12:36, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Agree, for the 2nd nomination I may have been a bit too quick with the spices :). Struck request above. GermanJoe (talk) 08:52, 6 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep passes grounds for inclusion with WP:GNG, W i k i 92 man  (Talk/Stalk) 12:34, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Could you clarify, which sources in particular are independent, reliable sources with in-depth coverage in your opinion? Please read WP:GNG - it has clear requirements, and none of the current sources seems to meet them (see my above comments). GermanJoe (talk) 08:52, 6 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete per G4, notability was certainly not acquired during the last month Kraxler (talk) 19:49, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment - Hi, in that case, you should've tagged the article with . Regards-- JAaron95  Talk  10:55, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't usually CSD tag articles that are already at AfD. But, I express my opinion citing the CSD to make sure that the closer understands my !vote. Kraxler (talk) 13:54, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
