Bio about a musician and activist who does not meet WP:NMUSIC or WP:BASIC. The article was declined in draftspace and moved to mainspace by its creator.

Almost none of the information in the draft is supported by the sources, which have been added at random places in the text. Of the seven sources, five are press releases about him being arrested (which is not mentioned in the article), one (pachodo.org) is a crowdsourced / user generated platform, and one is Angok's own organisation. bonadea contributions talk 13:43, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

FTR, this had already been through the process of draft submission - decline - move to mainspace - redraftification, which is why I didn't draftify it again. There have never been any independent and reliable sources in the draft, and looking at the previous AfD, there were no such sources available then, either. --bonadea contributions talk 13:47, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Seems to be a few stories about the singer's arrest, but I'm not sure that shows notability. I can't find any of the usual factors we'd look at for NMUSIC, doesn't appear to have charted or released albums on a commercial label. Oaktree b (talk) 14:06, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - In agreement with the nominator. The gentleman's music has received no reliable notice that I can find, and his other activities may have some social impact in his country but that does not make them notable. The article violates WP:NOTPROMOTION and WP:NOTRESUME. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:28, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: No evidence of passing NMUSIC or GNG

• Delete: I warned this editor couple of times and many also did about the quality of their work but they decided just to go a head and move their work to the mainspace regardless. The subject is not notable and the sources are either self-published or just fake citations. The editor should be banned from moving articles to the mainspace, but I can raise that at ANI.FuzzyMagma (talk) 18:48, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Dekete per WP:NOTFB and WP:RS. All of the sources are press releases. Look, in 2024 everyone knows we are not Instagram nor your private press agent. Bearian (talk) 02:53, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
