Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NNDN (2nd nomination)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was withdrawn as there was already an open AFD discussion on the article, which I missed solely because the creator had stripped the deletion template from the article. Bearcat (talk) 17:39, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician, not properly referenced as passing WP:NMUSIC. As always, every musician is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he exists, and has to be shown to pass certain specific markers of noteworthy achievement supported by a certain specific class of reliable source coverage about him in media -- but this isn't claiming anything that would pass the criteria in NMUSIC, and is referenced entirely to his music's presence on online streaming platforms, and a simple list of the results of a Google search, rather than any evidence of media coverage about him. And even if I switch the Google search to the "news" tab, I only get news articles about monthly COVID-19 statistics in Rhode Island and an article about a Ukrainian child who went missing in Poland, not any coverage of an Indian musician.
As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations site on which emerging musicians are entitled to have articles for the publicity -- but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be a subject of WP:GNG-worthy coverage in real media.
