I cannot find any sources that confer notability for this musician. I also don't see how his Thai pop group, D2B is notable. Angryapathy (talk) 16:38, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment There seem to be some sources in Thai - quite a few hits on their name in Thai. So...I'm not sure; I've asked a Thai speaker to take a look.  Chzz  ►  01:36, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment บิ๊ก ดีทูบี returns about 600k result however only some of them can be used if illustrating notability is required, since many of them links to his illness and death (press release and personal expression in online blog) along with copyright violation materials such as clips, streaming music, etc... I agree that individual member of the group may not notable enough for seperating the article, but for D2B, it hits, as 115. IP says. --Harley Hartwell (talk) 02:09, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Also note that his name was "Apichet Kittikorncharoen" for most of his lifetime (though the article fails to properly note the fact). Searching for his birth name provides more results and evidence of interest. --115.67.138.205 (talk) 18:48, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Only questionable sources have been unearthed. Even controlling for FUTON bias, nothing has come up since the article was nominated well over two weeks ago. tedder (talk) 06:45, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • "Medicine flown from Australia in bid to save Thai pop idol", AAP, via the Sydney Morning Herald.[2] this Time article, "The Lethal Problem with Bangkok's Canals" discusses his accident in its introduction.[3] Thirty gnews hits for "Kittikorncharoen", all of which concern the subject, though not all primarily. --115.67.73.30 (talk) 09:23, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • @ ALL IPs, Please consider Log In or create your own account to make sure that you do not have conflict of interest about Big's topic. We are discussing about the notability of the singer as the primary concern, according to the nominator's reason for nominating this article for deletion. Without notability, the article would never exists here, in English Wikipedia, which contains more regulations and guidelines than Thai Wikipedia, where the article about Big himself can be seperated. --Harley Hartwell (talk) 03:13, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sorry, I thought that it was obvious that all IPs in this discussion are from the same editor, being in the same IP range. Since I didn't log in when I first contributed to the discussion, having the signatures remain this way should be least confusing to other editors. Logging in wouldn't alleviate conflict of interest issues, either, since Wikipedia accounts are anonymous. You may be thinking of sockpuppetry or AfD-pushing, which shouldn't be a concern, since I have now clearly stated that all the IPs in the range in this discussion are mine, and I haven't submitted any !votes. Appraising anonymous comments is at the discretion of the closing admin. I don't edit the Thai Wikipedia, by the way. --115.67.5.199 (talk) 10:30, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and Stubify - there is adequate evidence of notability. Claritas (talk) 20:05, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I have no idea how to search for Thai language information on teh interweb, but the one source viewed pragmatically indicates there will be others. Yes the article needs an overhaul but article quality is no reason for deletion. Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:45, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
