The result was Userfy to User:Pepstar/Giuseppe D.. It should be noted that this is a temporary measure, and I will expect to see work being done on the article - if I see no work done within a 4-week period, I will delete the draft with no further notification.

My apologies. I did not know prior that those lines weren't supposed to be delete by me, I added references and I also corrected the copyright tag on the picture provided. Pepstar (talk) 17:39, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My error. I've provided references now knowing how. Pepstar (talk) 17:36, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The article is heavily promotional with phrases such as "With remixing as his bread and butter, and songwriting and production as his heart, Giuseppe continues to develop many up-and-coming and established artists for many labels". The only coverage in reliable sources are passing mentions such as [1], [2], [3]. Very likely an autobiography. -- Whpq (talk) 21:57, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Have deleted above mentioned sentence. Please indicate where any more references are required. Pepstar (talk) 02:33, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The requirement for notability is shown here. This subject fails in this regard. I think Pepstar should have this article userfied, work on it and get the opinion of others before moving it to article space. I would rather work with you, than to appear opposed, The original PROD would have been a better way to handle this, but I think it will end in the same way. That is to again say, move it to userspace until and if ever it is ready. My76 Strat 03:17, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would appreciate the help. What you've just suggested sounds like a foreign language to me. Pepstar (talk) 18:14, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reply - The article has been nominated for deletion as it does not meet the inclusion criteria for Wikipedia. Inclusion guidelines in general area covered by notability, with additional guidelines for those in creative areas covered at WP:CREATIVE. In order for this article to be kept, there needs to be significant coverage about "Giuseppe D." in independent reliable sources such as newspapers and magazines. Please note that this needs to be significant, so passing mentions of his name, and credit listings don't count; this needs to be indpendent so websites affiliated with Giuseppe D., and press releases don;t count. -- Whpq (talk) 15:27, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:49, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is to reaffirm that I believe the article fails to meet inclusion criteria, per WP:GNG. Whpq has succinctly highlighted the relevant facts. Also the articles creator seemed to indicate they would like the deleted article moved to their userspace where they could endeavor to bring it to standards. I intend to contact Pepstar to follow up on their last post which I hadn't seen until today. My76 Strat 02:12, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
