Although he appears to be a pop culture figure in Brazil, I can find no references to him in English language press. Not notable for the Enlgish Language Wikipedia per WP:MUSIC Wkharrisjr (talk) 16:47, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment There is no requirement that reliable sources be in English. Sources in English are preferable when equal to sources in other languages. For a Brazilian topic, reliable sources in Portugese are fine. This is an English language encyclopedia of the entire world, not an encyclopedia of the English speaking world.

- How does one verify that veracity of the sources (or in this case, find the sources for an unreferenced article in the first place)? I did try a Google translation of one promising site and it turned out to be a spoof site with no real information.Wkharrisjr (talk) 18:58, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Response I am not arguing "keep" here. Google Translate is a start. You could mention the article on WikiProject Brazil, where is may be noticed by editors with the language skills and interest to help out. Cullen328 (talk) 19:02, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I'm not finding anything of substance in Portuguese either. Fails WP:N in any language. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 06:13, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete without prejudice. The only sources provided by this article are non-independent ones, and the corresponding article at the Portuguese Wikipedia pt:DJ Cléston doesn't have much more. The subject may well garner more media coverage in the future for his musical activities, in which case the article can be re-created at that time. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:33, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
