Procedural nomination as a rejected WP:G4 speedy deletion candidate. Main concern in prior discussion was failing the general notability guideline and the notability guideline for music producers.

I have no argument for keep/delete, but it's likely worth discussing here. Appable (talk) 06:32, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect Delete to The Marshall Mathers LP 2 & Salt - The article was created by a paid editor (In all fairness to them they did put a template on the tp stating it) but in my eyes articles should be created by anyone who simply wants to create something ... not by someone paid to get the article up and not by someone who knows the subject, That aside they've gained some notability for producing The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (& the songs for it) but other than that the rest of the sources are Grammy awards/lists (again for working on the album), There's nothing out there that says "Yes this person has done something else that's gained notability", I wonder if it's a BLP1E case but could be entirely wrong on that, Either way they've only got some notability for working on album & that's it ..... So IMHO it's better off redirected deleted & perhaps salted. –Davey2010Talk 12:39, 23 September 2016 (UTC)(Updated: 12:16, 29 September 2016 (UTC))[reply]
  • Keep. (I created the article - I was paid and disclosed that on the talk page). To address the above, Streetrunner is not only notable for producing a track on Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2. Over the past decade, he has produced many tracks for Lil Wayne and numerous other major rappers, including 2 Chainz, Ludacris, Rick Ross, Fat Joe, Nicki Minaj, LL Cool J, Birdman and Royce da 5'9". Two albums he has worked on have won Grammy awards. Some of the singles he has produced are pretty big, such as Nicki Minaj's "Roman in Moscow" and Lil Wayne and Big Sean's "My Homies Still" (which went platinum). Simply put, the guy is notable in the hip hop world. There is press from Vibe, XXL, HipHopDX and MTV News. I feel the previous page on Streetrunner was deleted primarily because it was very poorly written, so here I have created one that is sourced and well-written and demonstrates his notability as a hip hop producer.--Bernie44 (talk) 14:11, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Page move comment - I've moved this to 2nd nom to make it less confusing as unfortunately the system didn't pick up on the lowercase "r" so to make it less confusing I've moved it., Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 22:03, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
