[edit] 50 Pence

50 Pence (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non notable artist. Completely unsourced. 1 hit wonder, does not pass WP:BAND, nor does the meme satisfy WP:WEB. Think: does this in anyway improve the encyclopedia? No links to any reviews or prominent discussion of the artist = non notability. Also, note the artist being born in 1986...not likely to be a famous artist.⇒ SWATJester On Belay! 18:50, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete - No assertion of notablity, fails WP:MUSIC.--Bryson{Talk}{Edits} 21:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete and redirect to Fifty pence. I am shocked that this has stayed up - with multiple editors working on it for a total of over 100 edits - for three years. No evidence of any notability whatsoever, completely unsourced, and the only link is to an article on the highly important topic of "Make your own iPod out of paper". (I'm surprised noone's submitted that as a Wikipedia article yet.) - iridescenti (talk to me!) 22:19, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless there are sources out there demonstrating that the song/s did well on the charts. I can't find any, which doesn't surprise me. To be fair, though, it's a very funny parody. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 04:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. Searching some news archives does turn up several articles about him (there may be more in the specialist music press), and his music apparently did make national radio. If this article is deleted, he may warrant a brief mention at 50 Cent. EALacey 08:04, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per above reasons. --Ixfd64 22:53, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
