[edit] FlipBoy
Calling all Canadians! This article is failing to assert notability, other than in a plea from the author that people from Montreal will vouch for the chap. Can someone here confirm or is this the CSD-A7 its gone down for once already? No opinion from me. ➨ ≡ЯΞDVΞRS≡ 20:54, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Please keep this article on Wikipedia, FlipBoy (Roman Bascao) is a well-known artist/musician in Montreal. He may not be Hollywood celebrities, but in Montreal, he's a really big star to us. A lot of people will like to know and learn more information on him. Wikipedia is the #1 place to find all the information you need and it would be nice if people could actually search for him and find all the info they need to know aobut him. I know a lot of curious people will type "FlipBoy" on this site to find information on him. Many people consider him as an inspiration. In Montreal, we are proud to have celebrities like him and we would like to share FlipBoy to the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Christopherandrews (talk • contribs)

Flip Boy(Roman Bascao) is a great Montreal raper on the rise and bein on wikipedia will help in his growth. His art is promising and will gain recognition in due time.
- Speedy Delete. I cannot find anything relevant on him online. At issue here is verifiability by outside sources, as well as WP:MUSIC (which FlipBoy does not appear to pass anyway, even if he is verifiable.) And admitting that he was "repeatedly booed off stage" doesn't do wonders for his credibility either. ;-) Grandmasterka 21:31, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. I am not Canadian and cannot vouch for every aspiring rapper from Montreal, but this sounds like pure vanity. Comments on the page like "Early life: coming soon," "Life Before Death," and the general children's-storybook writing style further support the fact that this material does not belong on Wikipedia and should instead find its way to either a paid domain or free webhosting.

- Strong Delete. It is apparent from the entry itself that this person is not notable. The article is also contrary to WP:NPOV. Fluit 21:18, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
