The result was Delete. Please note that I spared Purple City Productions and Big Mike; they don't seem involved in this. —Xezbeth 21:16, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sin Sizzerb
The walled garden from the previous AfD has grown much more and became nicer, but the problems of WP:N and WP:V still stand. All the articles are sourced from http://sizzerb.com, MySpaceish, bloggish and forumish websites, and the "best" independent source seems to be the Serbian newspaper in Canada and Serbian newspaper in US. The articles are result of a huge promotional campaign, likely by the musician himself or a couple of dedicated friends. At the minimum, the album, record company and sub-pages need to go. If deleted (I'll admit that he likely has some notoriety, rather than notability), should probably require salting. Duja► 09:50, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 12:05, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nominator's reasoning. Does not appear to pass WP:MUSIC, "mixtapes" self-released or similar. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:59, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Wikipedia is not MySpace.--Edtropolis 13:28, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Mixtapes themselves are borderline notabile. So one by an artist who himself is unnotabile definatly doesn't meat WP:NM. --Ted87 07:14, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete All, not a notable artist, and I don't think they even come close to meeting any of the WP:MUSIC criteria. Lankiveil 07:17, 23 June 2007 (UTC).
- Keep Meets WP:Music,

- Delete all! Wow, I don't think I've come across anything as self-promotional as this, incredible. Nonnotable. Minor mixtape remixes. 99% of references from their own website, youtube, myspace, sheesh. Cricket02 05:51, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete all, tear down the wall. Darrenhusted 16:33, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
