Twilight (rapper)


Not only is this page painfully POV in its eulogy, with quotes such as "He would have been champ for the entire seven weeks", and "the New York Police picked him up for being in the wrong place at the wrong time", but the subject of the article would appear to be non-notable. "Twilight rapper" gets a grand total of 2 Google hits, while his nickname "Tha Futcha" gets only 140, a large whack of which would appear to be Myspace. Basically, being a contestant on a couple of radio shows does not give sufficient notability for a reputable encyclopedia. Moreschi 22:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom; the article reads like a bling-bling inspirational tale: 'the little homeboy who didn't give up'. Maybe if he could spell his own nickname correctly I might be more sympathetic.  Incidentally (I speak from experience), there is a 'speedy delete' category for bands etc. without any album releases or other claim to notability (criterion A10 if I recall).  It might save an acrimonious AfD &mdash; it's so much easier on everyone if these sorts of articles just slip away quietly... The Crying Orc 21:47, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Yall can say whatever yall want, this is not going away. This is not going away. Word up. - A Different World - Tuesday, November 14, 2006. 7:45 P.M. (Happy Birthday Obie Trice, Ja Rule Hater)

I'm telling yall, if theres no more corrections to be made, then I'm going to get rid of the grey thing that's on top. - A Different World - Tuesday, November 14, 2006. 7:49 P.M.
 * This is not about making corrections to the article. It is about getting rid of an article about someone who, at this stage in their career at least, does not merit an encyclopedia article, according to Wikipedia's policies.  I see that you did get rid of the 'grey thing at the top' (i.e. the deletion notice).  Please don't do that again.  It is very disruptive, and likely to be regarded as vandalism.  This discussion lasts about 5 days (so till the 17th, then), and after that an administrator will review the arguments and either keep or delete the article, accordingly.  It's best to say your bit, and then sit tight till the decision comes in.  The Crying Orc 09:01, 15 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. May or may not be tha futcha, but does not appear to meet WP:BIO. Robertissimo 14:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. This seems more like a fan page then a bio.  Most of it seems like Hearsay. Tonker83 14:32, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete and Salt, since the author hasn't read WP:OWN - or for that matter WP:MUSIC, WP:BIO, WP:RS, WP:OR, WP:V, WP:NOT, WP:CIVIL, WP:DICK... I could go on, but why? -- Elaragirl | | | | | | Talk 17:11, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
