The dance music artist, X Green
Arguably asserts notability as music producer, but I don't think notability is established in the article. NawlinWiki 15:10, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't understand the Notability of your argument. I think it worth putting out information which describes an artistic acitivity somewhere in the world. The importance of this wording is clear to those who like the genre or would like to find out about it.

 * Delete I was prodding and got an edit conflict. Blatant self-promotion in violation of WP:COI (see name of user), no sources verifying content, and a google search find this guy's website and nothing else but numerous false positives; not-notable.--Fuhghettaboutit 15:17, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - As it is now, the article is unsourced, biased and non notable. I guess with significant rewriting (from an editor other than Xgreen{sic}) and some sources to establish notability I could be persuaded to let it stay, but as now it reads more like a Myspace page. - b o b b y  15:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

 * In the modern world we live in today most art works and technology is owned by idividuals and of course writting about them reflects the personal interest of those individuals, however that does not mean that poeple will not be interested to read about them. (answering the self promotion question). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xgreen (talk • contribs).
 * I agree with you. People might be interested in reading about you, and the Interent has all types of free sites where you can post anything you'd like to about yourself. This is not one of those sites; Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and some of the links posted above show you the policies and guidelines we have developed for figuring out encyclopedic content.--Fuhghettaboutit 15:37, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment This doesn't matter; Wikipedia is WP:NOT myspace or a promotional tool, and is an encyclopedia. That means you need things like reliable sources to verify information in the article, of which you have none. ColourBurst 15:38, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I have done some research in Wikipedia and I would never attempt to write such article if hundreds of alike meterial didnt already exist on the site. Would you like me to post links to some of these pages? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xgreen (talk • contribs)

 * Maybe the only thing I can point out as a reference link for deep dish except the ones which I have already added and considered unapproves is the Discogs.com link. which I will add now to my article. Xgreen 15:49, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete for obvious reasons. Danny Lilithborne 16:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I didnt try to be convoncing using appearance alteration. Just happend to be the same time i was checking the account preferences. Anyway I guess its better to leave the judgement for those who moderate the site. I mentioned my point. at the end of the day there wont be a third case, either kept or deleted. I'll do what I think is right and write what I think can be useful. Good day Wikitorian 20:23, 31 October 2006 (UTC) Note Forged signature. Actually posted by
 * Delete Not notable. Obvious conflict of interest. No assertion of significance in the article.
 * "in July 2006, they launched their digital label Caedmon records" "Caedmon records" +"Alex Celler" nets 7 unique google hits, including myspace.
 * |GREEN&sql=11:yz2uak1kkm3v~T4 Alex listing appears to be about someone else.
 * "X Green " +dance +music +artist -myspace yields 400 UNIQUE google hits, the top which are not relevant.
 * "X Green " +"dance music artist" -myspace nets 1 google hit  Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim   15:09, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

X Green Caedmon records google returned at least 10 relevant hits Wikitorian 17:58, 2 November 2006 (UTC) Note Forged signature. Actually posted by   Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim   18:53, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Half of those are myspace, which have no value, since anyone can create myspace pages. Notable artists generate hundreds, preferably thousands, of google hits. And who's "Wikitorian"? Fan-1967 18:06, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
