Man, just look at the links provided. Look at this, how many releases from his label? That's right 135. The guy is more famous than what is his name? Andrew Townsend. more. He is notable. Remove the tag please. Mallerd (talk) 12:28, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
WP:RS
[edit]My concern in tagging the article was the lack of independent referenced sources, as per WP:RS requirements. If those can be provided by the article's author, then the Speedy Delete nomination would deserve to be rescinded. Thank you and be well. Ecoleetage (talk) 12:32, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

- Sorry about that, but can you explain to me what an independent referenced source is. If I put sources from a party community such as "partyflock", "freaky.nl", a webstore which sells a lot of records or "discogs", a site which holds a very reliable list of releases, is that independent and reliable? In my opinion of course it is, but for some reason not in yours. Why not? Mallerd (talk) 12:36, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, I must admit that I don't know if a site like these [1] [2] [3] are reliable in your/Wikipedia's eyes. Isn't it sort of common sense that the New York Times are not going to write about this dj? Sites like I have given are reliable in their own field of expertise though. Please do look at the sites. I shall copy it to the talkpage.Mallerd (talk) 12:49, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
- These references need to be on the main article page. I'm going to vote for a Keep but I think that you have some work to do. All the best. harris 578 (talk) 12:13, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
Revisited
[edit]I'm surprised that this passed the AFD over 3 years ago, has not gained any reliable sources since then, and has until now remained unquestioned. NYTimes doesn't have to be the source, but there's nothing here that passes WP:RELIABLE, and a Google search doesn't present much either. Is there any reason that this doesn't merit a second AFD? Discogs [4] establishes that this is a prolific artist, but it doesn't establish notability, any more than do multiple listings for an author at Amazon. So, is there not a single article in the alternative music press? 76.248.149.98 (talk) 16:01, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
Deletion
[edit]This page doesn't comply with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
It's been lacking reliable information for years, and the only supporter seems to be the subject of the page, who is trying to advertise himself trough Wikipedia, breaking yet another basic rule. The subject is also not worthy. I would suggest it's deletion based on the lack of authenticity as well as the subject himself constantly abusing Wikipedia's guidelines and acting as a third party. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheDirectorWiki (talk • contribs) 14:40, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
