The sources that are available are PR sources in Nigerian newspapers. I am suspecting that the creator is paid to make these edits and the articles in the Nigerian papers are there to aid him in his undisclosed paid editing. Best, Reading Beans (talk) 19:43, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians and United States of America. Reading Beans (talk) 19:43, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Also note that [[File:Restlezz holding plaque.jpg]] was uploaded on the same month of writing this page on Wiki. Definitely for promotional purposes. Best, Reading Beans (talk) 19:48, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- File:Restlezz holding plaque.jpg was added so as to improve the subject notability status to the new page reviewers so that the subject charting record would be used as a point for the subject notability and not the other way around about it being a way to promote the subject the article clearly meets up with wikipedia standards for neutrality because no promotional tag was added in the last couple months it was created. with love reading beans Digitalageohio (talk) 02:15, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Rapper from central Utah, popular in Nigeria. Good grief, this is getting silly. There are no sources other than what's in the article, from Nigeria. Long way from GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 20:05, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

- This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (This Article should not be deleted because it meets the Standards on Wikipedia guidelines on notability from https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:GNG&redirect=no Reliable Sources, the citations used in the Subject Article are from reliable sources, The Source, All Hiphop Earmilk, Vangaurd, and Tribune Online these are reliable sources as said in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Sources and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Electronic_music/Sources )
- Significant Coverage The subject has had significant coverage you can look over the citations he was on an interview with Earmilk a Reliable trusted source for Wikipedia on music-related subjects.
- Reliable Wikipedia already listed these sources as reliable so the citations from these sources were used in the article.
- Sources and it's not from a single source it's from multiple sources, not just one and they all meet Wikipedia standards for neutrality and reliability.
- Independent of the subject The sources used for citations are independent of the subject as you can use they are from Major Newspapers publication that can't sell their reputation because of a subject.
- As you can see the Subject Restlezz meets all the standards for Wikipedia neutrality and notability as stated in: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability#General_notability_guideline
- Talking About Notability the subject has a Knowledge Panel Generated by Google Knowledge Panels that cant be bought or created it's autogenerated when an entity is a public figure that is well known AchillesWinner94 (talk) 22:46, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Keep For notability the subject restlezz has a Google Knowledge Panel which can only be generated for notable musicians which their fans are looking up daily. also note that all the citations used on the subject article meet up with Wikipedia standards for neutrality and notability Tribune online, Vanguard this are independent bodies that are considered neutral by Wikipedia. All hiphop which is a reliable source for American news information has articles on the subject plus Earmilk also has information on the subject. plus with my investigations the subject has a good charting record if he is not notable then he will not be able to do that so in a nutshell.
- The subject has multiple coverages in independent sources that meet up with [1] and [2] and also [3] for notability and neutrality .
- The subject has a generated knowledge panel By Google which is given to notable musicians
- These are reasons enough to keep this article from deletion with what I have seen so far.Digitalageohio (talk) 06:50, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Try as much as one might, there are simply not enough reliable, third-party, independent sources out there that could support our subject's claim to notability. Primary sources can't cut it. I read through the arguments to the contrary, posted above, and it was like a detailed course in "What arguments to avoid in deletion discussions". I mean, have pity on our work time, dear colleagues! -The Gnome (talk) 13:39, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
- According to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material. And the subject article has sources that meet up with https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability which says Information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; if no reliable, independent sources can be found on a topic. But there are independent sources that meet up with Wikipedia standards for notability and neutrality for music related topics according to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Electronic_music/Sources and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Sources plus the subject has sources from some African newspapers that meet up with Wikipedia standards too https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Nigeria/Nigerian_sources. In a nut shell it meets up with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability#General_notability_guideline. Cheers Digitalageohio (talk) 11:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: FYI: Having a Google Knowledge Panel is not a sign of notability.
