I originally BLP prodded this article, but I got tired of edit warring to keep the tag in place, so I thought this would be easier. Article claims multiple charting singles on the Canadian Hot 100, but I was unable to independently verify these claims. This article appears to be an extension of the subject's Facebook advertising campaign. --Bongwarrior (talk) 22:01, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

This article should not be deleted. I discovered that some of the information I had posted was falsified but the page should not be deleted as the artist has been listed through many internet websites and many magazine blogs. etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thecvntxo (talk • contribs) 22:26, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Tried and failed to find reliable sources even suggesting the notability of this subject. - Running On Brains (talk) 01:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Wtf? Why are you going to delete this? Even if he has no sources I'm sure that he will. The kid is obviously an upcoming star! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.198.9.197 (talk) 04:12, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: I can think of several AfDs off the top of my head where a handful of fans passionately argued that the wannabe subjects were surely destined for greatness. None were ever heard from again.  When (and if) the subject here attracts genuine notice in the form of reliable sources, he can have an article on Wikipedia.  Until that time, he can't.  In the meantime, according to Billboard, he has never charted on the Canadian Hot 100, and I'm curiously unable to find any reference to the "Canadian iTunes Pop Chart" this article cites.   ῲ Ravenswing ῴ  06:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, simply as a way of enforcing the BLP prod that can't be enforced otherwise. Once it's deleted, recreate as a redirect to Stephen Joseph.  Nyttend (talk) 11:52, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
