Word-Soul

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

This article is about a non-notable new music genre which was initially created as spam to promote the supposed founder of the genre but then stripped of nearly all content to avoid getting speedied with G11. Admittedly, the article is no longer unambiguously promotional, which is why I have taken it here, as it does simply not meet Wikipedia's notability standards. Since word-soul was allegedly created in 2011, I performed Google News and Books sources for "Word-Soul" music genre time-restricted from 2011 to the present for my (fruitless) search for any potential reliable sources. The creator of the article has stated that other articles have similar problems and that this creates a double standard, but this isn't the case seeing as though any other articles can simply be nominated for deletion as well if they are, upon closer inspection, found to have similar issues.
