If you recently reviewed my articles on entertainers and thought that they may not be notable Please Read:

If you see Musician notability numbers 10-12 you will that my article is in fact a valid notable topic.[1]

Please have a look!

Musicians and groups edit

A musician or group (this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following guidelines:

  1. Has been the subject of a several important published works whose source is not the musician or group itself and is reliable. The published works must be someone else writing about the musician, ensemble, composer, or lyricist.[note 1]
    • This guideline includes published works such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries.[note 2] These sources do not show notability:
      • Press releases, other publications where the musician or group talks about themselves.
      • All advertising that mentions the musician or group, including manufacturers' advertising.[note 3]
      • Unimportant articles that simply show performance dates, release information or track listings
      • Publications of contact and booking details in directories.
      • Articles in a school or university newspaper (or similar) are not usually important, but should be looked at on a case-by-case basis.
  2. Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart.
  3. Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country.
  4. Has received important coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.[note 4]
  5. Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable).
  6. Is a group which has two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable groups.
  7. Has become one of the most important representatives of a notable style or the most important of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.
  8. Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award.
  9. Has won or placed in a major music competition.
  10. Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable movie, included on a notable compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably better to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article.)
  11. Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network.
  12. Has been the subject of a half-hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network.

Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have shown individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article.

Notability edit

So far I see nothing meeting our criteria at Wikipedia:Notability (people), specifically the section on creative professionals. Please read the page carefully. I've been holding back on deleting it hoping something would be found, but so far nothing. Doug Weller talk 10:05, 24 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Archiveworld, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Lil Cory have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adam9007 (talk) 17:17, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

March 2017 edit

  Your addition to Lil Cory has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted.

Proposed deletion of Lil Cory edit

 

The article Lil Cory has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Lacks independent reliable coverage. Fails WP:MUSICBIO, WP:BIO, and WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

iTunes edit

iTunes is not an acceptable reference, because it is considered promotional. Please stop adding it to the page. Primefac (talk) 17:57, 29 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

=non-promotional! edit

If iTunes is considered a promotional link then How come it is widely used across Wikipedia to validate a release and is widely used as a citation? I have found many, many, many articles across wikipedia using iTunes as a reference. I am adding it back to the article.

If it is it shouldn't be. See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Discographies/style#Sources. Sales sites generally fail WP:RS - they have no interest in fact checking, just selling. Doug Weller talk 18:32, 29 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Reliable sources edit

Please read WP:RS and WP:VERIFY. You clearly haven't read them. Wikipedia articles cannot be used as sources. You'd have an easier time if you made sure you'd read the relevant guidelines etc. Doug Weller talk 18:24, 29 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Final Warning edit

Please stop being disruptive regarding Lil Cory. Continued disruption at either the AFD or the article will result in a temporary block from editing until the AFD concludes. Primefac (talk) 18:27, 29 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
