[edit] Dj yours truly
Self-promotion, fails to meet critera at Wikipedia:Notability (music). Subjects claim to fame, club hit "It's Teazie" gives me zero hits at Google. Thuresson (talk) 09:41, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete No reliable sources, nn musician that fails WP:MUSIC. STORMTRACKER 94 15:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Non-notable, no sources. --Charitwo talk 15:22, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete non notable, no sources aside from MySpace. If the song mentioned was a "club hit" it wouldn't have zero google hits. Methinks this is a self-promotion Doc Strange (talk) 16:21, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Do Not Delete I do not believe this should be deleted it is not self promotion...it wasn't a club hit in the sense of made the radio and made him millions...however more in the sense of when played in Ybor clubs everybody came to the dance floor. Obviousley DJ Yours Truly has not made it to the big stage yet, however, he has seen some local fame. Everything in the article was taken from an Interview which will be also published in an online blog. He does not have a true website. Which is very common lately due to myspace being free.

- Comment You should get yourself acquainted with WP:MUSIC and WP:NOT. If it was only one club that said song was popular at, this doesn't make it notable. You state that everything in the article was taken from somewhere else. This is called plagiarism and is a no-no on Wikipedia. He has also not made it to the "big stage" yet, which also means he's NN. No other sources but the interview, no All Music Guide and only a small handful of relevant Google hits. This means he's not notable. Doc Strange (talk) 18:19, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Follow-Up Comment. These are some of the WP:MUSIC criteria: "Has had a charted hit on any national music chart". This artist does not. "Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country, reported in reliable sources". Nope. "Has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network." Nope. "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)." Nope. Doc Strange (talk) 18:26, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Reply This is not plagiarism because I wrote it word for word in an interview with the artist. I didn't realize that the only way you could be put on wikipedia as an artist was if you were an accomplished artist. However just because you haven't made it there doesn't mean you don't have a story.

- Comment other stuff exists is not an argument for keeping something Doc Strange (talk) 19:04, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nn, probably self promotion. Would also support the deletion of Pull my finger per Whomattgross. -RiverHockey (talk) 17:23, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
