Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Muhammad Islam

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete: only one editor making genuine arguments for keeping in this AfD, though not being very specific. There are two NME reviews documented here, and NME is undoubtedly a notable music publication. However, the article as it stands relies on nothing more than the subject's family to assert notability, and there's clear consensus here that that isn't sufficient. If anyone is able to create an article which asserts and verifies the subject's notability independently, more than the current two-sentence stub, then this deletion doesn't prejudice against that. --Sam Blanning^(talk) 02:42, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Comment I finished the afd nom that Rarechords started. See this note on my talk page for a little background. I'll abstain from making a recommendation on this. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 02:33, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Additional comment I should've provided a link to the original afd for Yoriyos. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 01:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete being the offspring of the former Cat Stevens is not sufficient notability for inclusion into Wikipedia. B.Wind 02:52, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete — Being the offspring of a famous musician is not enough to merit notability. Subject must be notable on his/her own. –- kungming·2 ^(Talk) 03:04, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. MER-C 03:25, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

I withdraw my "delete" vote; apparently he has has some press and might fit "notability" requirement after all - I am researching this now. Name he records under is "Yoriyos". Request that you hold off on deletion.Tvoz 01:34, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Don't delete as he is also a musician who will release his first album soon (as stated in the links that were deledet by 82.69.43.155)... --84.192.156.78 18:49, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Musicians who have not yet released an album are often, I'm afraid, not considered notable. See Wikipedia:Notability (music). ConDem^Talk 19:29, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with Cat Stevens —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 61.19.54.164 (talk • contribs).
• Delete having a famous parent does not guarantee notability, plus he is already given mention in the Cat Stevens article. Great name, though. Biruitorul 02:04, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Screw you nerds. Yoriyos has an official website and album. Yes, he is Yusuf Islam's offspring, but as long as fictional Star Wars characters are deemed acceptable enough to warrant their own pages, Yoriyos should be allowed to stay. Incredible Jake 02:05, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete No need for that language Jake. Delete it. end of.
