Draft:AyoAA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: A couple of primary, non-independent sources and a couple of database listings added, which is very far from the kind of source that is needed. Please read the information in the decline notices and start by removing poor sources, tyen remove everything that cannot be verified by a reliable, independent source. bonadea contributions talk 06:35, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: No coverage of him in independent, secondary sources. The sources in the draft are mentions in database listings and one promotional press release. A lot of the content is entirely unsourced.
    Please be aware that association with notable people does not automatically lead to notability. In other words, that he has been the producer for notable artists (or of notable songs) does not make him notable. It seems very unlikely that he is indeed notable, given that the draft says that he is best known for "his production credits" on a song where the source doesn't even mention his name! bonadea contributions talk 10:46, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
