Kaptain Kush Into mainspace, see
here & all of a sudden a new editor named LoneWrita joins the encyclopedia 12 days ago and surprise surprise his first article was to create the
Kaptain Kush article. I believe this is UPE & sockpuppetry at work. Celestina007 (

Before joining the platform Wikipedia, I took my time to read their guidelines in websites including Wikipedia itself, I discovered that any article proposed must meet a certain notability status before being accepted here, so, the first name that came into my mind to write about was
Kaptain Kush, I discovered he's notable enough and deserves a space after discovering that he has been booked to perform in
The Headies awards and he has some feats including award and chart featured, I started the draft, and also while I was drafting, I made sure I was gathering sources needed for it to be made an article here, I followed the due processes, at first I submitted it but it was rejected a few times with the reasons being that I should gather more sources that would make it stay, I had to add the awards he's won and also included his chart featured since acting aspect of him wasn't enough to make him an article in Wikipedia. I was also told by an EXTENDED CONFIRMED USER admin that I have to submit it once corrected if I have enough source and never to move it to the mainspace to avoid the article being deleted, after making the necessary corrections, I submitted it, the article was reviewed and deem qualified to be in the main space which one of the authors did. Due processes was followed and I did as I was told without breaking the guidelines, the article in question also went through
WP:AFC process and review by an author before being move to the main space, I corrected the possible mistakes and also added notable works which can be seen in the article
Kaptain Kush, I believe this must have been the reason why the article was accepted to be in the mainspace. Also, as a musical artist, I read in
WP:NMUSIC which states the criteria needed for a musical artist to make it to the mainspace on Wikipedia, Kaptain Kush meets some of these, which was the reason why I had to submit it for proper review, and also correct the mistakes I might have omitted before.,
Kaptain Kush has meet the following criterium;
published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself
Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart.
I've taken my time to go through the investigation and I discover that I am assumed to be the user
user:Anniebisolo, I want to openly state that at first, I had no idea of what this was about about, so did my comment going off topic discussed here, I took my time to also go through everything listed here, there, I found, it isn't a place to contest deletion as I had thought. I must clearly state that, I don't know who the user is and this look like a kind of co-incidence which can be investigated more. I was not also paid to make any edit on Wikipedia like I said earlier.

This new editor's contributions are all focussed on
Kaptain Kush, the subject of an article that was recently deleted via G5 as created by a sock of Anniebisilolo. Their
posts at Requested Articles have include many of the same sources and content that was in the original article, which was deleted just a few days ago. Given the timing and the overlap, it seems too much to be coincidence.

Clerk endorsed - overlapping interest in the non-notable and heavily-pushed Kaptain Kush (note to checkuser, this could also be
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Kolapoimam - both are active around Kaptain Kush). Comparing the deleted article to the Requested Articles entry, they're fairly different but hit a lot of the same "beats" so this could also be yet another UPE chasing this commission.

Clerk note: I'm astonished, I was about to block BadEdithor as UPE but they apparently made a COI declaration on their userpage since I opened this. Per CheckUser findings I'm going to say that this could be meatpuppetry, but I'm willing to try a little AGF. Closing without action, if they keep trying to push Kaptain Kush they can be blocked as a promo-only account regardless of their COI declaration.
