This BLP was deleted back in 2020 through AfD, still fails to meet basic GNG as well relevant WP:NMUSICIAN. — Saqib ( talk | contribs) 17:25, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

- Hi Saqib,
- Hope you are doing well.
- Please let me know on what parameters is the article nominated for deletion. As per my knowledge, the subject meets the criteria. Aanuarif ( talk) 22:18, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - I voted to delete this singer in the first AfD back in 2020, and the reasoning at the time was that he had what appeared to be plentiful media coverage, but read the text and you'll find it very promotional and often downright gushy, meaning that the sources are friendly forwarders of press releases and management blurbs. He has gotten some more of the same in more recent years, but it is still largely promotional with practically no reliable coverage that can be used to build an encyclopedic article here. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 17:36, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
