[edit] Ricky D. Purl
This is a non-notable biography of a musician that fails WP:A and WP:BIO/WP:MUSIC. See talk page for lengthy attempts to scare up proper reliable sources to verify the article's claims. Notability claims hinge on Purl's "unclear" involvement with a non-notable hip hop group and a YouTube video that, while it featured some notable performers, has attracted no outside attention. Google search results are low: Starstruck Ricky Purl receives 122 uniques Google hits and none appear to be reliable sources. "Ricky Purl" & "Ricky D. Purl" are busts. The "Starstruck video on YouTube has been up for almost a year and received less than 1700 views. Scientizzle 16:41, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Scientizzle lays out a convincing case for deletion on the talk page. Mwelch 20:23, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
