Tokyogirl79 hello I have changed my username with your guidance. Thank you for this. I am just ensuring the right info is out there. I am new to wikipedia. Regarding the Starkillers page I have no connection or contact with the original editors / other editors of the page whatsoever, nor have I contributed towards the page in any way. Whoever edited the page may have failed to meet some of the wiki guidelines. As you suggested I have tried to contact the admin who deleted the page but I havn't heard any response yet. Is there any help from your end the article can recieve? Maybe the original editors did not cite things properly or did not use appropriate language.

• You just recently posted on his talk page, so we would have to give him more time to answer the post. If he doesn't answer you can petition DRV for article re-creation in the mainspace, although it'd probably be better if you asked for it to be userfied and run through AfC. I might be able to get you an AfC copy, although you'd probably still have to run it through Postdlf or DRV before submitting it to the mainspace, though.

Tokyogirl79 thank you! so when you say re-creation you mean anyone can recreate it and put it up for AfC before it can go to mainspace? Also what is the undeletion process then? Sorry for so many questions new to wikipedia so just ensuring I have all the terminology right!

Starkillers and reliable sources

Kiran – following on from postdlf's reply to you on his talk page, I thought I would add my own thoughts here, as it's disrespectful of me to keep butting in on his own talk page. Apart from the guidelines he has already suggested you look at, you might want to check out Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Reliable sources as well.

Basically, Wikipedia discourages the use of any self-published source by the person in question for use in an article about them. This includes not just his personal website, but also Facebook, Twitter or other social media that he may use – Wikipedia encourages material from independent third-party sources. Also, the notability guidelines talk about having reached at least one country's official national charts. Beatport, iTunes, etc. are not official national charts and therefore do not meet the notability guidelines – I have numerous DJ friends who have records out on Beatport and who have taken part in DJ competitions, but they wouldn't be considered notable. So in order to prove Starkillers' notability for a Wikipedia article, the sources should not include anything from his website or social media, no non-official charts, and no information from personal blogs or gossip websites. In short, the information would need to come from newspapers, music magazines, independent music websites with an editorial team, and chart positions from national charts. Hope this helps.

Richard3120 (talk) thank you so much for this info this really helps Richard! This is one of his hit tracks right here with its own Wiki page that charted in Belgium: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_(Nadia_Ali_song) I can provide much more 3rd party sources than that to prove his notability. Would you think it would be a good idea for me to put this up on "Articles of Creation" as another admin had suggested me? That way other editors can pick it up and contribute to it.

No, I think postdlf is correct, you can't submit an article for creation a second time once it has been deleted, you have to make a case for it to be reverted. The Belgian chart is the Tip chart, which isn't the main chart: it's the equivalent of the Billboard Bubbling Under chart, i.e. new records likely to make the main chart. I've no idea where that UK chart position comes from either, as the UK chart only goes up to 100.

You should add four tildes after your comments in order to add your signature and timestamp. Richard3120 (talk) 16:20, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

Richard3120 (talk) Ok I will build an argument on DRV thank you for your help! Kiran chandani (talk) 16:24, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

You may want to use your sandbox to build up your argument and to collect sources – if you are logged in under your username you will see "Sandbox" in the menu right at the top of the screen, towards the right hand side. Clicking on that will bring you to your own personal "play area" where you can try out various things, collect information and work on articles, without altering anything on the main Wikipedia site.

Richard3120 (talk) Hi Richard! Thank you for the info on Sandbox. I have already collected sufficient references and broke it down to the Musician notability criterion based on the Wiki guidelines but yes I will definitely start with Sandbox before posting on main wikipedia so I get all the formatting correct. I will be posting this soon! Thank you! :) Kiran chandani (talk) 21:08, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
