[edit] YTCracker

Seems to be a vanity page of a mostly non-notable person. Schnee (cheeks clone) 01:08, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

• Exceedingly weak Strong Keep pending verification of some of the facts in the article. If he's a prominent representative of the "nerdcore" music style (yes, it does exist) then I'd say he meets WP:MUSIC #6. Also, the performance alongside major rap artists and the writing credit, if true, would further show some notability. android79 01:21, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • The evidence detailed on the talk page is impressive, and I have changed my vote accordingly. android79 23:40, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Seems to be genuine, and if it is it meets WP:MUSIC. They only things I can't verify are the links between hacking NASA, the music and the porn. --Apyule 03:58, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep As much as this looks like vanity, the name has 25,700 google hits, the top set of which at least superficially support the story. If that's not a keep, I don't know what is. I don't know how much editing the thing needs, but this guy is definitely a live one. A. J. Luxton 08:56, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep ytc is the og. he really did/does all that stuff
• Keep If you doubt the claims about YTCracker you better ps ax about him.
• Keep I have spent 2 weeks cross referencing everything that is on wikipedia about Ytcracker and with articles across the net. This is definetly legitimate.
• Keep budz says YT is the OG DG, ya better ask somebody.
• Keep I've known Bryce Case Jr. (A.K.A. YTCracker) for about 5 years now. I can honestly say a large majority of this information is factual and true. YTCracker is the pioneer of Nerdcore rap, i remeber hearing one of his first AOL rap songs about 4 years ago, whoever came after him is just jumping on the nerdcore groupie train. I agree with A J Luxton's post above 20,000 + hits on google for "ytcracker" says it all. I don't know how much more proof you guys need. - Joe, New York, NY(jpm@jpmventuregroup.com)
• Weak keep and cleanup per the first three votes, and despite the anonymous votes following it. Remove the download external link; self-promotion. Barno 14:31, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• I suppose I really cannot vote on my own behalf, nor did I write this article, however whatever "proof" that you would require for legitimization of the facts in this article can easily be provided. YTCracker
  • Certainly you can vote; but the admin closing this VfD is likely to give less weight to your vote since you're the topic. I would recommend that, while the VfD is in progress, you add links to the article's talk page which verify the activities, such as mainstream media coverage. Other editors can review them and add material they find appropriate. Anonymous "he is the OG DG, ya better ask somebody" votes are far less likely to persuade other editors.

  • OK - I have created a mutilated talk page for the VfD with various links to articles and photo/video evidence. Most of the respective proof can be independently Googled if you were bored enough. --Ytcracker 23:32, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
