[edit] Black Dawg

Hoax, probably speediable as vandalism but what the heck. --W(t) 12:05, 2005 Jun 6 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep Not a hoax. -BrowardBulldawg 12:10, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Either a hoax, or a rapper so minor google even doesn't know he exists. no Usenet discussion...no AMG article...no nothing. --Jamieli 12:15, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete if not for hoax (it doesn't seem to be a hoax), then for either vanity or non-notability. Aecis 12:17, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Likely hoax. Highly unlikely that a musician would choose the name "Black Dawg" when there's already a real group called Black Dog, who do remixes and such. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:25, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • DELETE May be significant in the near future as the author claims, but certainly isn't now. WTF is up with listing a linked Wikipedia user name in the article as a member of a music group? That spells VANITY in ALL CAPS. --Unfocused 15:05, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete It's crap. --Xcali 16:38, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete vanity at the very least. Since Google and numerous other sources haven't heard of this, I would like BrowardBulldawg explain to us why this is noteworthy enough for an encyclopedia entry and whether he can source it. (And no, you don't have to be the subject of the article yourself for it to be vanity.) Mgm|(talk) 19:27, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete nn rapper vanity. --Etacar11 20:16, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Yo, this is T.L. aka THUGlife. Real funny article here, bitches. I ain't never heard of Black Dawg, but I'll ask White Dawg personally about this. But this article claims that I belong to a rap group called "Tha Four Blingaz," and y'all know that just ain't true. This is a joke, probably meant to smear White Dawg on tha wikipedia. Let's delete.T.L. 23:32, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • This aint THUGlife. Trust me, I know THUGlife in real life and this aint him. Hes just trying to use reverse psychology to hate on WHITE DAWG!!!!!!! HATERS! -BrowardBulldawg 01:31, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Commentz: Black Dawg is a new rapper signed under Dawgman Spencer, White Dawg's 50/50 partner in da muzik biz. -BrowardBulldawg 01:49, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Bad dawg. no! Tobycat 05:20, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. --Scimitar 22:22, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as non-notable, probable hoax. I couldn't find anything relevant on Google. "Black Dawg & White Dawg" gets no results, and "Black Dawg" "White Dawg" gets 1 result. Further, about the CD called Grille... see the Black Dawg Bar and Grille. Their supposed album is still speculation (Google doesn't even say it's hit rap news sites yet). I'd say that Black Dawg can even be sent to BJAODN... I thought that "Black Dawg & White Dawg: An Interracial Thang" album title was pretty funny. But unless this album actually comes out and sells decently well, we don't need an article on this artist. --Idont Havaname 07:38, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, I could care less whether it was notable or not, or how many albums released, or number of fans, but the original creator of this article, through his language, clearly disproves any worth of the article to Wikipedia. -- Natalinasmpf 21:01, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
