Apparently non-notable rapper, no reliable source in the page, no indication that any could be found. On 4 May I moved this to draft space, where it was declined by two AfC reviewers; the WP:SPA still seems to think it belongs in mainspace. A7 has been declined three times (twice by me), bringing it here seems to be the only remaining option. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:34, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I've restored Draft:Solo Riq and redirected it here, as histmerge didn't seem to be a possibility (the second AfC decline was after the copy-paste move to mainspace); the earlier history of the page can be seen there. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:42, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete very clearly a creation by an SPA who seems to try to establish notability through a Wikipedia article as opposed creating an article about someone who is notable. There are no sources that can be identified to support notability. Statements in the article are poorly sourced (primary/unreliable) - due to lack of independent sourcing. _pseudonym Jake Brockman ^talk 12:45, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete A7 – I explained in great detail why the subject is not notable in my talk page conversation to the creator. This is A7 worthy as this rapper is literally completely unknown. There is zero coverage in reliable sources or any non primary sources for that matter. StaticVapor message me! 20:56, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The author is very desperate to save this article, he has been begging on my talk page. Regardless, I believe that the rapper is not notable. --BoothSift 03:54, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete preferably speedily as there's no evidence of significance or notability and then salt it because it'll almost certainly be recreated. Praxidicae (talk) 13:37, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
