BLP article with minimal sources, if any real ones at all. I've been unable to find the subject's name in the sources listed. They remain unclear. The principle editor is using a username that is the same as the article subject. I believe this to be someone who is trying to make a name for themselves and not someone who is already notable per WP:MUSIC. Due to the grammatical errors in the article, it would need to be entirely re-written. Dismas|(talk) 10:26, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

- Delete The article as PROD'ed for having no real references. A bunch of references have been added, but the are either links to A.T.M Jeff's music videos posted at various locations around the web, or to stories having nothing to do with this artist. No actual significant coverage found for this artist, and the addition of false references does not bolster my confidence. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

- Delete. Blatant self-promotion. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:19, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
- Strong delete - non-notable, selfpromotion; borderline G11 speedy. ukexpat (talk) 02:19, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Delete, "Jeff don't drink, smoke or take weed.". That's commendable, but it doesn't make up for a lack of third party coverage. Lankiveil (speak to me) 10:51, 13 March 2013 (UTC).
- Delete. It's a vanity piece with a very funny "Personal Life" section, and it fails our guidelines for inclusion. — sparklism hey! 11:38, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Can you please read this to understand me better
Hi
there i have seen all the messages, but i just couldn't reply to them cause i don't real know how to use the talk page. Also i have something to tell you.
1) I'm not the atm jeff guy, you guys think of, i only created this page for him cause i've check on google and he don't have one, that's why i decided to create one for him. I only seen him once at the show.
2) The reason why i used hes really name as my username, it's cause i had no other easry name to use, and that's why i decided to use (Etiennebaheza) which is hes real name so it can be easy for me to remember it.
3) the reason why i was asking if anybody could help me to fix the references, it's cause i'm new here and i don't know how to add the references, that's why i was asking. And please i do not want loose the time I spent in it, And i'm gone try and add the real References soon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Etiennebaheza (talk • contribs) 13:20, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Comment Editing under another person's name is forbidden. So, either you are Etienne Baheza (aka A.T.M JEFF) and you have created a vanity autobiography, or you are improperly impersonating him. In either case, you're doing something wrong. As for the references, they have been fixed. They're all bogus, but at least they're properly formatted.

so guys what should i do now?? Is it anyhow i can change the name or sign up a new account using my real name??? (atmjeff (talk) 07:01, 14 March 2013 (UTC)).
- Yes, you can create another account and abandon the one using Jeff's name. And the only way you have to save this article is to find some reliable sources that actually talk about Jeff. Not just links to his video but text or video interviews that deal specifically with him. You mention above that you have "real references", so why not use them now? Dismas|(talk) 12:35, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
alright that's cool. But how am i gone create another article using the same name, while this page still online. Is it any how you can delete this page first so i can be able to create another page using my name and also creating the article under the name A.T.M JEFF again. Thank you --atmjeff (talk) 03:07, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
- Comment There is no point in deleting the present article only to create a new article about the still non-notable musician. The article is not up for deletion because of the perceived conflict of interest, but because Jeff does not meet the criteria for inclusion at Wikipedia.

- Comment' If you can provide sources in the current article showing that he is notable then it won't be deleted. Dismas|(talk) 04:23, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
- Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. A previous version of the article was speedily deleted for being promotional in tone - not much has changed. Hack (talk) 04:11, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
- Delete I wish this guy well, but there's no evidence that WP:BIO is met at present. Nick-D (talk) 07:43, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
Bro i found 4 real references, so i hope that gone make this page to stay. As i have been around looking for other articles, some they have 2,3,4,5 references and they still don't have the deletion on they page. So i hope the 4 references i found is gone work.--atmjeff (talk) 14:04, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
- Comment Care to share these "real references"? No references have been added to the article since it was nominated for deletion. Add the references to the article (or list them here) so we can evaluate them. But please, make sure that the actually mention the subject. I have removed all references that verifiably do not mention the subject, leaving a very poorly sourced article indeed. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:31, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
