[edit] Yeshuah

Not notable. No info at AllMusic, less than ten hits searching for his name and "humdingers". Mikeblas 14:25, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to Yeshua and protect as common spelling variant. This person is not notable. Fan1967 14:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete (fails WP:BAND) and Redirect to Yeshua. Likely misspelling. Tevildo 14:35, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete not notable. --Dweller 16:11, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect per Mikeblas. "At shows Yeshuah can always be recognised by his trademark green, navy blue and yellow tracksuit" - I'd've though he'd be recognised as the guy up onstage rapping? --DaveG12345 04:11, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Yeshua. --Coredesat talk 08:49, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Yeshuah is well known in the london area and there are many search reuslts under his name, especially on bit torrent sites. Albums like nubian intelligence and the humdingers collection can be purchased online. Rappers like professor green, pyrelli and asher d can be found on this site. Where is the logic?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomunitedbyfate (talk • contribs)

Comment Define "well known in the London area"? --Dweller 15:56, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

• I think he means he has a strong underground fanbase. I think some of you may be american and unaware of the uk rap scene. What exactly is wrong with this article? The person is of note, maybe somewhat less than others though.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.69.60.132 (talk • contribs)

• The problem is that "underground" popularity is impossible to verify and is, to be frank, frequently a lot less than claimed. If Wikipedia did not require some verification of a musician's notability, we would be constantly be keeping new articles for every aspiring performer who's had one performance (sometimes not even that) or posted one mp3 on a myspace page.

• Redirect my thoughts were that it would be about Jesus, surprised when it was about a reasonably non-notable musician, especially given the "myspace band" reference. Ansell 00:45, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
