- Delete a totally unsourced article. That this article has survived 16 years may make it an even bigger scandal than
Barahir. My understanding is that notability guidelines were not even begun until 2006. We still are plagued by the early uncontrolled years of Wikipedia.

- This page survived 16 years as a redirect (with various targets), not this biography of a musician. The musician was only added to this page a few hours ago. -- Metropolitan90 (talk) 14:50, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - This article is operating as one of many self-promotional announcements that were created around that time. No significant and reliable coverage on the rapper can be found. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 13:33, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - No notability. All that a bit of searching can confirm is essentially that this obscure artist really exists and has continued to release material. CoffeeWithMarkets ( talk) 14:06, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as apparently non-notable musician per WP:MUSIC. After the deletion, redirect to B52 (disambiguation). -- Metropolitan90 (talk) 14:50, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Good point. Turning this into a redirect after the deletion makes sense. CoffeeWithMarkets ( talk) 08:33, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect The article was a reasonable redirect for most of its life, no reason not to reinstate that. It's had a few different targets in its lifetime, B52 (disambiguation) seems like the most reasonable one to me. If this is done as an administrative action, in line with the consensus here, anyone attempting to revert back to the article about the musician could expect to have their account blocked. (Deletion wouldn't be much of a barrier to anyone anyway, it's literally one sentence that someone could easily type again to recreate the page.) GirthSummit (blether) 13:00, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
