 * Hello my article has been put up for review and nominated for deletion. I worked hard trying to put this article. Is there a reason why you have nominated it to be deleted? Is there a way to keep the article so it won't be deleted. I provided three sources and plan to edit this article more in depth in the future. Thank youSmj27 (talk) 08:34, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
 * His reasons have been provided. I know you're new here, so the technical speak might not be noticeable right away, but what Jake Brockman is saying is that the subject of this article does not deserve to have an article here on Wikipedia because he has not been proven to be notable, nor is there really much to say about him with the available resources which tell us little about him.

 * Hi Smj27, I do apologise for the rather cryptic, technical speak of my nomination. Thanks to for explaining. One of the core principles of Wikipedia is that articles should be about notable subjects. Notability is usually established through reputable, verifiable and independent sources. This is especially true when dealing with biographies of living people. I really appreciate they work you have done and you have collected a lot of information about Snake. I hope this does not discourage you from participating with future edits or maybe a new creation of the article (should the discussion result in delete) when the subject has gained more notability. In the meantime, let me provide some links to relevant guidelines for your reference: General notability, Specific notability of bands/musicians, Verifiability of sources, Guideline for Biographies of living people. Any questions, please feel free to reach out. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 11:21, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Is there any chance to keep the article, there are many people interested in this musician who will know more about him in Wikipedia. I think this musician deserves to have an article written about him on wikipedia. I am planing on editing the article more in depth and much more information. Does someone have to be really famous to get into wikipedia? I think wikipedia should allow many more independent musicians to have an article about them in wikipedia because there are other people interested in this article. Sorry if I bother I just really wanted this article written and published in Wikipedia. Thank you, so much for your time. Smj27 (talk) 19:29, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
 * No worries, you're not bothering anyone. This discussion will remain open for at least a week after it has been started. There is still plenty of time to get the article up to snuff. If the issues are addressed and the nominator's rationale proven wrong in that time, it will be saved. There is also a slim chance that the discussion will continue past the seven-day deadline if it is determined that there is still too much disagreement on what to do with the article... which is even more likely to happen if attempts are made to improve the article. ;) Zeke, the Mad Horrorist  (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 04:16, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
