[edit] Sway

This whole page seems to be a vanity page made by a rapper to market himself. Note the overly gushing tone of the text, at the very least it's not 'encyclopedic.' 132.162.214.133 02:23, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nom.--->Newyorktimescrossword 03:04, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep A google search reveals quite a bit of notability, esp in the UK. Article is overly POV and needs a scrub. Keryst 03:13, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Interestingly, "what links here" tells us that it's a parish in New Forest and a musical genre. However, the article content tells us that this person satisfies the WP:MUSIC criteria. Keep. Uncle G 03:18, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup according to WP:NMG. Won a significant award see Guardian article [1]. Capitalistroadster 03:33, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep passes WP:Music. Cleanup. --W.marsh 03:56, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. (Sorry, nominator.) It does pass the award requirement, and I've scrubbed out the POV with a wire brush. Deltabeignet 04:32, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Well done, Deltabeignet. Capitalistroadster 04:57, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as it passes WP:MUSIC. Good job on the cleanup. Jacqui ^{★ 05:49, 8 November 2005 (UTC)}
• Keep per WP:MUSIC and User:Deltabeignet's rewrite (I've made some changes of my own, for what it's worth). However, the article should be moved to Sway DaSafo or Derek Andrew Safo (one of these two should redirect to the other, obviously). Sway DaSafo is simply not the first thing one thinks of when the word "sway" is mentioned. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 07:14, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Move Surely Fuddlemark is correct? Marcus22 10:54, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Move per fuddlemark Just zis Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] :: AfD? 14:31, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per WP:Music. HGB 01:09, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and tidy! --161.74.11.24 20:01, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per the fuddler. Alf ^melmac 16:09, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
