[edit] Oh No (rapper)

• Delete per non-notability. Seems to have only recently released one debut album in 2004 and his only ties to fame seem to be through his brother who is another more notable rapper. If notability can be established, I'll change my vote keep.--Jersey Devil 21:26, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I can't establish the notability of the rapper either. --Starionwolf 22:16, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete but his parents sure were some cruel bastards to name their kid "Michael Jackson". Danny Lilithborne 22:22, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Oh no, he's not notable! Delete the article. --Coredesat 22:59, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Let's keep him —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sydbarrett (talk • contribs)

• • That's a really convincing argument. Danny Lilithborne 00:22, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Has a non-trivial entry in the Allmusic guide. He released an album on a prominent indie label, Stones Throw Records, which includes Oh No's brother Madlib and the late J Dilla among its artists. He also recorded at least one song with J Dilla, "Move Part 2". Oh No is, at worst, borderline notable, and given notability's controversial status on Wikipedia and the absence of any violation of Wikipedia policies, deletion here would be inappropriate. | Mr. Darcy talk 00:26, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete For an entry to be kept it needs to have some useful information. Despite the delete notice no-one seems bothered enough to make this article worthwhile. I stand corrected - non-notable. BlueValour 17:01, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Insufficient content is not a valid reason for deletion; the solution is the {{expand}} tag. Please read the Deletion policy before voting in AfD discussions. | Mr. Darcy talk 13:18, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. A beginning artist, but seems notable enough to me. Except for those articles that are clearly advertisement for some company or product, the current status of the article is not reason for deleting or not deleting it. Would you keep a flawless, extremely well-written, 35kb-long article on my left toe? :) JoaoRicardo^talk 17:13, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete NN, doesn't seem to pass WP:MUSIC. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
