This page is proposed to be deleted by user One Night In Hackney, not because the artist is Non-notable, but because the article has relevance to the electronic musician Psilodump.

It's clear that the user has not even checked the notability, being Paza Rahm appearing on three releases by worldknown artist Beck, and the article is still classed as Stub.

Furthermore, the user has proposed deletion of 6 articles with first-hand AND second-hand connection to Psilodump within 11 minutes, including the pioneer netlabel Kahvi Collective (1997-present), where Psilodump has done releases, as well as netlabels Candy Mind, Childrenofdos and Psilodump's Electronica collective The X-Dump.

Even worse, the user has even bothered to propose deletion of famous chiptune artist and demoscene profile Goto80, just because he has done releases on the same netlabel as Psilodump.

As comment on deletion of the Psilodump article, the user states "Delete per nom, and delete the rest of the walled garden too - Never Heal, Memory Loss EP, and You Sick Little Monkey."

What is interesting here is that "One Night In Hackney" proposed the removal of the Psilodump article because of lack of references, which had been offered to be provided, but later, he claims, in the deletion proposal, that the Psilodump article has been deleted because of "non notable artist", instead of missing references.

Is this a user/editor to be trusted not being in some way biased and rather impulsive?
Personal reasons/issues rather than objective reasoning behind this deletion frenzy?

I fail to see your point. Wikipedia has strict notability guidelines, and all of the articles referred to above fail to assert notability meeting those guidelines. I suggest you spend your time improving the articles rather than alleging some mysterious plot. In my opinion this artist is non-notable, as being featured on Beck songs doesn't make him pass the notability guidelines. One Night In Hackney303 23:31, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
