Poorly sourced promotional article fails WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. Source 1 (MTV Artists) is self-authored "This site contains content from artists, fans, and writers from around the internet in it's natural form" (sic). Source 2 is a somewhat in-depth post on a specialist website--not enough to establish notability. Source 3 is a self-created video. Source 4 does not mention subject of article. Source 5 only briefly mentions subject of article. Sources 6-8 are just listings, lack independence, and do not establish notability. Note that creator of article User:知的な is a blocked sock from a massive commercial sockfarm. Logical Cowboy (talk) 15:27, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete BLP sourcing issues including UGC (ref 1). Part of paid editing SPAM articles. Widefox; talk 12:14, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. DJ Postal was not notable at the time of the last deletion. Still not notable now. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Wikipedia is not a means of promotion. Stop rewarding spam editors. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:24, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
