Solitude (Album)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Notability. Also see Articles for deletion/DJ I-Dee‎. Subject does not appear to be encyclopedic, and this would apply to his albums as well.  Enigma  message 19:49, 18 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete non-notable, yet to be released, album, fails WP:MUSIC ukexpat (talk) 20:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep I have updated references in regards to Solitude (Album). Please be aware that there are hundreds of albums (consisting of originally material, like myself) in the wikipedia category "2008 albums". If "Solitude (Album)" were to be deleted, then those 1,620 must be as well. Having the term "DJ" before an artists name can misinterpret the fact that I'm unoriginal but infact, I create music that is my entirely my own and not someone elses.

 * Comment - WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS isn't a valid argument. -- JediLofty UserTalk 08:54, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Two things. First, WP:NOR isn't the problem here, it's the notability question posed by WP:MUSIC. Second, the existence of similar articles which violate notability guidelines is not a valid argument for keeping this article, rather it's an argument for deleting those other articles. --/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 21:29, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * In response to the conflict of interest, thats solely my personal opinion which is unrelated or mentioned on "Solitude (Album)" and how most DJ/turntablist musicians have a bulls-eye target on their head and get misinterpreted. Paragraph 2 of the cited reference on "Solitude (Album)" states the artist's name, album title, release date and featured artists. Okayplayer is a notable music website (started by ?uestlove) which consists of independent staff writers unrelated to DJ I-Dee. In accordance with WP:MUSIC, I feel that meets the requirements. However, if an official press release strictly covering "Solitude" is needed, please indicate.Djidee (talk) 22:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I have added a future-music tag to help better clarify it's status.Djidee (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 23:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:MUSIC; I don't see required significant independent coverage in reliable sources as specified. Also note the conflict of interest admitted in the above comment by . --/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 21:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. This would be a different case if this were a rumored album from a notable performer, but an as-yet unreleased debut album by an as-yet unknown artist doesn't meet notability requirements.  If it charts, then rewrite it.   Corvus cornix  talk  23:19, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:CRYSTAL, WP:MUSIC, WP:RS & WP:COI. Maybe look at recreating the article once the album has been released and has done something notable.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 00:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
