Contested deletion edit

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because..The article subject has coverage across numerous sources and crosses the threshold of notability --WordSeventeen (talk) 15:26, 4 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • @WordSeventeen: I've declined the speedy deletion nomination because the article makes credible claims of importance, which is the standard applied when applying the WP:CSD A7 criteria. Just for future reference, anyone is able to decline a Speedy Deletion nomination as long as they aren't the author of the article, and the dispute button/option is primarily intended for the article author, though there is nothing wrong with using it. As for the notability of the article, judging just by whats there, and not doing any research on potential for improvement: The article probably does not pass the WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG in its current form. Of the 4 non-youtube sources, 2 are copies of the same press release. One is a short blurb from the Times of India, which is a good source, but is weak due to the very limited depth. The last is a article that goes into decent depth, but is from a blog. Blogs can contribute to notability in some cases, and that one has a staff page, and other indicia of reliability, but its always an uphill battle if you need to argue that a blog is a reliable source for notability purposes. Again, just judging from whats currently there, but it does have a notability issue if more reliable sources that provide substantive coverage aren't added. Monty845 03:43, 7 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
