The result was no consensus. If an article can be sourced, it should be sourced - the potential existence of sources does not supercede the need for said sources. Those interested in keeping this article should work to include these sources to ensure it does not end up on AfD again in the near future. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 14:38, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nick Speed
This has been around for almost a year, yet the only source cited is a MySpace. No multiple, non-trivial references to establish notability. Spellcast 14:59, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete,redirect to G-Unit Records The only other source I can see is a trivial one in a Detroit paper.--Sethacus 15:35, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - It's not cited, but it CAN be - doesn't meet a deletion criteria. He's produced for highly notable people, there must be something out there. Dihydrogen Monoxide 06:25, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Delete I Googled "Nick Speed" "producer" "-com" and got 35 hits. None suggest notability. MarkBul 16:27, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Doesn't need to be deleted, just needs an {{unreferenced}} tag. GlassCobra (talk • contribs) 22:26, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- The "unreferenced" tag has been there for over a year now and not a single reliable source has been added since its creation. Maybe this suggests none exist? It would be ok if this was recreated with third party sources, but right now there are none that can be found to establish notability. Spellcast 03:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Those Google results only reveal very brief and trivial mentions. There could at least be one cover story, but there doesn't seem to be. The statement that "there must be something out there" is just speculation. Like WP:V says: "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it", so the policy overrides all arguments.

- Keep highly notable producer, and obviously written by the man himself, as with Elzhi. Check out what links hereCosprings 17:26, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- If you can give a couple of sources to prove he's notable, I'll gladly withdraw the nomination. Also, how do you know it was written by him? Spellcast 16:57, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
