Young So

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As the subject of the article is from Africa, I really don't want to nominate the article due to possible systemic bias issues, but sadly a search for reliable coverage comes up empty. Also, the article appears to be an autobiography. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:47, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. There doesn't appear to be much charting or press coverage. Letting you go(song) and Young So discography should be speedied as well. Scarce2 (talk) 10:23, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

 * An artist has to reach a threshold of notability to have an article on Wikipedia. This can be achieved (for example) by having songs charting on noteworthy charts (e.g., Billboard Hot 100) or receiving a fair amount of press coverage. As of now, this artist does not appear to have met either standard (which is not to say they never will). See WP:MUSICBIO for some more information. Scarce2 (talk) 10:38, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

SONGS BY yOUNG SO HAVE BE RANKED ON SEVERAL CHARTS IN GHANA — Preceding unsigned comment added by Youngso1234 (talk • contribs) 11:10, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I have googled the term "Young So GH chart" as an attempt to find the charts he had featured in. A site offering advice on where one can source ones marijuana appeared. user:Youngso1234 There are two things I want to know. Firstly in what way are you associated with this artist. Secondly can you provide me with a link to one of this fellows entries in a notable chart. I will reserve my vote for the moment. Please ping me with an answer. Thank you Trout71 (talk) 18:38, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC, also a COI or autobiography. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:27, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I would not expect to find a popular Ghanian musician listed in Billboard unless the person has done a major crossover. However, a search on "Young So" in "Modern Ghana" shows a number of articles about him and his music. . I don't know what other Ghanian or African sources to look in, so I suggest that Youngso1234 provide us with some more such links. The links to the songs themselves and to YouTube videos are not suitable for determining notability, so we need more journal or magazine links -- even if they are not online. One more independent link and I can see this as a keep. LaMona (talk) 22:51, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, and is clearly intended to promote the subject by an editor with a COI. Winner 42 Talk to me!  01:07, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Comment The article's creator moved it to Draft:Young So, blanked the draft, and then created a new version of the article, identical to the previous one minus the AfD template, at Young So. This means that if this AfD is closed as keep, the history will have to be restored. I'll warn the author about disrupting the AfD process. --bonadea contributions talk 08:50, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
