[edit] Dj yoshi

Dj yoshi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

This Australian DJ seems to fail WP:MUSIC. The only listed sources are his official site and his myspace, and Google web and news searches don't turn up anything more substantial or reliable. He doesn't even appear to be the most notable of several questionably notable DJ Yoshis. Jfire (talk) 03:39, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Delete. There are some trivial press mentions, but nothing that would make DJ Yoshi notable.

• Delete not notable to WP:MUSIC since May 2007. ChessCreator (talk) 04:30, 4 April 2008 (UTC) Maybe I'm wrong because it's part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian music ChessCreator (talk) 04:33, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

• No, your original comment was fine. Being tagged as part of a WikiProject doesn't mean anything notability-wise either way. Lots of articles of questionable notability are tagged as part of various WikiProjects. In fact there's a long list of them at Wikipedia:WikiProject Notability/Listing by project. Sometimes someone from the project can help establish notability; sometimes they can confirm that the subject is non-notable. Jfire (talk) 05:00, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Comment Chances are that it's likely to be notable if someone with related knowledge has already decided to included it in a wikiproject. ChessCreator (talk) 05:55, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Not really. Anyone can add a project tag to an article. I do it all the time for {{notability}}-tagged articles. It doesn't mean the subject is necessarily notable. It's just another method of categorization and organization. Jfire (talk) 06:12, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, article fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC.  Esradekan Gibb  ^"Talk" 06:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, would not seem to meet the WP:MUSIC notability criteria. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 23:04, 4 April 2008 (UTC).
• Delete. Has released multiple albums, but not on a notable record label as far as I can see, hence fails MUSIC, as far as I can see. dihydrogen monoxide (H₂O) 23:58, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Lack of independent references, cannot establish notability. WWGB (talk) 02:49, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
