Daryl Youngblood[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a contested prod where the reasons given were Non-notable musician. See this Google. The prod was supported by the comment I can't find a reference that he has "5 National Number 1 hits and 9 top 10 singles." Furthermore, there is probably a COI here, as User:Duotonestudios created the article.

Based on this, we clearly need to discuss the article even though the prod can be overturned by request. Since I am simply the restoring admin and have done no due diligence I an offering no comment on the merits of this article. Spartaz ^Humbug! 09:40, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, WP:HOAX. Not listed in the full cast and crew of Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married?, and although a Daryl Youngblood seems to have a "Myspace band," this whole article is hogwash. Glenfarclas (talk) 10:07, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I have never heard of this guy, and if he had so many hits, I wonder why I didn't. And this clearly seems to violate WP:COI. Let's just delete this article and let the well-known Mister Youngblood promote himself elsewhere. --DasallmächtigeJ (talk) 02:59, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable at best, probable hoax. Edward321 (talk) 13:54, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, Hoax. No way anyone could have that many top 10 hits (or even 1 hit) without any news sources. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:39, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
