[edit] Sin Morera

A mere 81 google hits for "Sin Morera". Non notable and most likely a vanity article written by the subject. IrishGuy 00:34, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• commentThis is not a vanity project. Google is not the only web browser on the planet also. I am not the artist. I have seen some of your articles on Irish magicians, and no offense, I have never heard and I doubt I ever will in my lifetime. I consider that this article only being a few hours old is being considered for deletion. I find that not only racist, but ignorant. One must use publications, I have many printed magazines that I can cite, but it will take time to enter this information. Everything takes time. For your artists, for some of those obscure magicians you don't have more than two links? Why is that? --LHPRPUBLICITY 00:50, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

comment First off, only one of the magician articles is for an Irish magician. Don't make assumptions based on my username. Second, personal attacks are Wiki violations...and calling me a racist is definitely a personal attack. Third, it isn't Wiki policy for articles to have as many links as humanly possible. Only pertinent links. IrishGuy 22:23, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• weak keep I have a funny feeling that this guy is notable enough to pass WP:MUSIC, if only one of those links could lead to an audio file of of one the songs he has written or has any references to any other artists he has worked with. Dspserpico 01:05, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• CommentThe article is under construction. I am typing everything in MS Word and then can basically transfer text, links and all. There are so many false articles on this system that have been on Wikipedia and no one has done anything. Look at Angelo Garcia's biography is extremely SELF-SERVING. Or look at Quentin Elias. His biography on his website makes all these claims and an editor tried to make this references, yet it was erased and the whole article is based on one weak magazine article. The label on this article should be removed until I finish the article. I call that a fair deal. --LHPRPUBLICITY 01:19, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Comment If you feel that there are other articles which don't meet Wiki standards, feel free to AfD them...but it isn't a valid reason to keep this article. We need evidence of notability and verifiability. IrishGuy 07:42, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• • Comment Finish the article anyways, don't let the AfD tag deter you, if it ends up being good and passes Wikipedia's notability standards (look at WP:MUSIC), then people will vote to keep it. Dspserpico 01:31, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• • CommentQuick question, if I want to cite local & national periodicals with articles is there a format to follow. The artist was featured in the "notorious" Page Six section of the New York Post in August 2005. To make it on Page Six is a milestone in the celebrity world. Furthermore, there are many local New York night life magazines such as HX and Time Out New York that are distributed nationally as well. He has appeared in articles in these magazines. Is there a way to make this stand out. -- this unsigned comment was left by XLR8TION

Finally, he has more than 81 hits on Google. He is listed under DJ Sin, Sin Morera, Carlos Sin Morera, and Sin Morrera. He possibly has many other variants. Once again, although Google is one of the top engines in the world, I always check with Yahoo!, Altavista, etc.. when doing my research.--LHPRPUBLICITY 03:27, 15 May 2006 (UTC)\

Comment OK. Carlos Sin Morera get exatly zero google hits [1], Sin Morrera gets one hit that has nothing to do with this subject [2], and DJ Sin is clearly used by so many different people that is it impossible to tell how many, if any, refer to this subject [3]. So, as I noted, there are exactly 81 google hits for this subject. IrishGuy 07:42, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment - some detail as to who recorded all these co-written songs would help to establish notability. No vote until we get something along those lines. Ac@osr 16:52, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, but let me know if some proper sources, recordings, etc. show up. Per IrishGuy. Stifle (talk) 15:06, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Stifle. Zaxem 09:49, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
