Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yoriyos
Was speedied twice with no notability claims; author has recreated again, and added a link to a review and a link to a radio show playlist. I don't think either satisfies WP:MUSIC; furthermore, I did a Google search for a snippet of the text from the review and found it on three different sites; none is a review site that I'd heard of before. The name of the article's creator is also the name of the subject's own record label; seems promotional to me. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:44, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep What satisfies you Ohnoitsjamie? The review is real. and the plays on the BBC and Seans endorsement (if you listened to the show) seems sufficient to me. Even if it is deleted now it will be put up again by Polydor as they are distributing it, as they did with James Morrison 2 months before they released his debut album. i dont think your satisfaction is what needs to be satisfied here. So long as i stick to the criteria it should stay up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rarechords (talk • contribs) .
- Comment WP:MUSIC-defined notability would satisfy me. Unlike MySpace, Wikipedia is not a tool for promoting an up-and-coming artist; musicians must already be notable to merit inclusion. You are correct that "my satisfaction" is not the sole critiera; that's why I listed it here for others to comment on. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:06, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable media (excludes things like school newspapers, personal blogs, etc...).
- Well the site with the review on it seems reputable to me, try reading other reviews of theirs and you'll see it's not just some silly site. and the bbc link is reputable. I do agree with you that this site is not a tool for promoting, it is not my intention to do that. And regarding the snippet being on three different sites, please post the links as i tried to do this and have only come up with the Female First review. comment was added by Rarechords
- Comment The link to the Google search is in my nomination. I looked through some of the reviews on that site. I'm not convinced that their independent reviews; the read like promos. I did a Google search from a sentence from one of the DVD reviews and came up with numerous hits. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:27, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

- Comment Female First, Teen First and Male First are obviously one and the same. They aren't three three different review sites with the same review. That's not a fair point. And furthermore, if you aren't UK based, i dont feel you can fairly assess this issue, as there have been gigs and prints in magazines here, it's not an out of the blue artist. comment was added by Rarechords
