Kidd (Australian rapper)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Can find no evidence of notability nor are there really references on this page. Because of the links that are present I chose not to WP:BLPPROD. Note that this is an Australian rapper which is different than Kidd (Danish rapper) Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:51, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Close the above titled page is a redirect to a disambiguation page. I believe the nom wants to list Kidd (Danish rapper)? FloridaArmy (talk) 01:20, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, he wanted to list the Australian rapper whose article was originally at the above page before you and Ansh666 started putting in redirects. I agree the Australian rapper should probably be a speedy close as an unsourced and likely autobiography of a non-notable person, but it's a bit difficult for other editors to make a decision if the AfD link now goes to a redirect. Richard3120 (talk) 01:31, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I actually undid the redirect but the Afd link was to an old one that was closed so I restored. I see now an editor has fixed the Afd link. FloridaArmy (talk) 13:00, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete even Speedy delete. I cannot readily see anything that comes close to anywhere near sufficient IRS for WP:NEXIST to support WP:GNG. Also completely unsourced BLP at this time. (Editors need to stop messing procedurally with the article until this AfD runs its course too.) The article has been created by an SPA, and it would seem which has some knowledge of WP (so why no references at all?). Possible alternative and-or COI account?

Another option. Perhaps move back to DRAFT and let the editor fix it up if it can be referenced appropriately? Aoziwe (talk) 02:51, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete ~~and then restore redirect~~ - it'd been a stable {{r from partial disambiguation}} for a year before being converted to an article (different one from the first AfD, which was for the guy now at Kidd (Danish rapper)). The current target is plainly not notable and has some BLP issues to boot. ansh666 04:04, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Page has been moved, so no need for the second part. ansh 666 04:29, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Zero news sources found. See also Draft:KIDD (Rapper) and Draft:KIDD.--Auric talk 11:39, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I have moved Draft:KIDD (Rapper) to Draft:Kidd (Australian rapper) so that the draft matches the name which it would be moved if it were published. Also, I redirected Draft:KIDD to Draft:Kidd (Australian rapper) since it was a duplicate draft. Steel1943 (talk) 14:42, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, per Auric. Deb (talk) 13:31, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I have moved the nominated article to Kidd (Australian rapper) so that Kidd (rapper) can be reestablished as a redirect towards Kidd. In effect, I have also moved this AfD page to a matching title. Steel1943 (talk) 14:23, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:GNG as described above. Can be closed as Delete WP:SNOW Clean-up-wiki-guy (talk) 17:21, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:ANYBIO, unlikely to ever be notable musician. Dan arndt (talk) 11:50, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
