Sparky (Music Artist)

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

Iffy already due to WP:Autobiography, also fails the WP:Notability (music) criteria. I put this up for speedy deletion yesterday and it was deleted, Sparky's since added it again. No news sources about it, none of the 'albums' return any google hits... Eeblefish 07:37, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as entirely non notable, salt if it comes back again after this debate. Obviously, if notability can be established, then keep. J Milburn 12:39, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Google does not find results due to recently updated meta tags on all pages. Artist is relatively popular around the Vienna, Austria area.
 * Click. -Sparky 22:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Please do not edit my comments here, Sparky -- I added them back in. Also, it is totally inappropriate to remove the AfD tag on the article before discussion is done. Eeblefish 00:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't see the need to delete this article; can you present any information which disproves the information stated? -Sparky 22:59, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * You may have a few misconceptions about how Wikipedia works -- that's not an insult, just what I think. Please read Notability -- when people say an article isn't notable, they're referring to those critera. Specifically, Notability (music) is something to check out. If you want the article to remain it's your job to establish its notability per the guidelines in the links. Also, do not remove other user's comments on this page. I'm trying to assume good faith and treat it as an accident, but you've done it several times now, and it is simply not acceptable. Eeblefish 02:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. Fails WP:BAND in every aspect.-- Dycedarg &#x0436; 06:18, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Googling is difficult because 'sparky' is such a common word, but I tried googling strings like "Sparky techno Austria" and couldn't find any evidence of notability that would qualify under WP:MUSIC.  The clear conflict of interest is a problem as well.-FisherQueen (Talk) 22:05, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks,


 * Delete Not sure why we need more consensus when only the author is arguing for keep but... non-notable artist, fails WP:MUSIC. One Night In Hackney 05:02, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
