Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sam C. S. (2nd nomination)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. The consensus is that he does not yet meet the notability criteria - if at a future time, he meets the criteria, then an article can be created at that time.  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 15:20, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Sam C. S.
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Okay I put a prod up for this, but then I moved it for spacing. It then said the afd existed. I was originally going to do a csd previously deleted, but not sure if it should go up still. Either way-this is a BLP of someone who falls under too soon (it even says up and coming) Wgolf (talk) 21:09, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I am new to Wikipedia contributions. I am a fan of this artist and found that he had no Wikipedia page. I did find a lot of information about him from other sources online. So I thought it would be a good idea to create one. I am collecting more references. I read from several sources that he has been signed for 7 more albums/films. His current album is a hit and many fans have expressed interest on finding more information about him on his album's Youtube videos etc. I was going to add more facts once I completed the process of collecting enough valid and respectable references and sources. I should probably remove the 'upcoming' word usage as he is pretty well known in the Tamil music and Film circles. In addition to this complete Album, one of the films for which he has composed and performed two tracks is an independent movie that has won the Best Tamil Film award in the Chennai International Film Festival. the article on this movie clearly credits his name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orr_Eravuu I apologize if I have missed any guidelines, but I do think this artist deserves a Wikipedia article. Please help me correct and fix issues so that it may be allowed to stay. Thanks. Anithajoseph (talk) 13:28, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete:: very much too soon. Per the one source, film is not due to be released until November 2016. Nothing in article paragraph even states notability. It is up to the article creator to establish that a person is notable and provide reliable sources to verify this. Fylbecatulous talk 09:41, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep: Added his background score credits linking to wikipedia pages of those movies. Also the film is not released, however, the album(soundtracks) have already been released and are widely appreciated by critics and audiences. Working on adding more references and content about forthcoming projects, career and reviews. Thanks. Anithajoseph (talk) 20:24, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete at best as still questionable for the needed notability improvements. SwisterTwister   talk  06:42, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - definitely WP:TOOSOON. Not enough in-depth coverage turned up in searches to show that they pass WP:GNG at this time. It might be a good idea to userfy until, and if, the person ever achieves enough notability.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:54, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Delete and move to Draft:Sam C. S. per the lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. Here are three sources I found about the subject:  The article notes: "Sam CS, who has worked as keyboard programmer and background score composer for around 10 films like Ambuli and Aaaah, has scored the music for Vijay Sethupathy's upcoming film Mellisai. The film is a romantic musical thriller and he says only live instruments have been used for its music."  The article notes: "Mellisai (Tamil) Music: Sam C.S. Sam C.S. (Sam Riyas), who debuted with a couple of songs in Ambuli 3D, gets his first solo soundtrack in Mellisai. He does very well, topping the album with a very Bondesque (if James Bond theme tunes were a genre) ‘Lola’. Maria Kavitha Thomas, who sings ‘Lola’ with the necessary feel beautifully, rolls the name Lola and seems like a fantastic choice to croon this one."</li> <li> The article notes: "The film features music by Sam C. S. and cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan."</li> </ol> There is some reliable material about Sam C.S., but I don't think this is enough to establish notability per Notability. I recommend moving to draft so interested users can work on it when more reliable sources surface. Cunard (talk) 05:11, 16 May 2016 (UTC)</li></ul>
 * Delete - He appears to have only been mentioned tangentially in the above sources. This is rather an award case, at any rate, since he's clearly associated with a film that hasn't been released yet. Will it become well known? Will his work related to it get lots of coverage? Well, sheesh, we just don't know yet. It seems pretty clear that the present article ought to be deleted without prejudice to possible future recreation later on.
