Weak keep - Page's current references may not be the strongest but the subject is covered in reliable sources. Meatsgains (talk) 22:17, 14 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, so where are the reliable sources? can't find any from here. Also have in mind that there are several other Sugarboys out there that have received independent coverage in reliable sources so you don't go mixing them up. Stanleytux (talk) 04:32, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Here are a few I found after just a quick search: Nigeria Today, Music in Africa, and Pulse. Meatsgains (talk) 01:42, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Still not sufficient enough for the article to stay. The three sources you cited aren't newspapers or websites owned by reputable print media. Stanleytux (talk) 06:08, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Accounts blocked for sockpuppetry. Mike V • Talk 16:04, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article meets criterias 1 , 5, 6 , 7, 10, 12. He is notable if he meets at least one of the following criteria". Since Sugarboy meets six criterias of WP:MUSICBIO, he is notable enough to be on Wikipedia. --Bello96 (talk) 07:29, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Same references in the article, nothing new. User:Bello96, you really need to get acquainted with WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO before creating your next BLP articles to avoid them coming here. Please provide us with reliable sources. You can check out WP:RS for what a reliable source really is. Stanleytux (talk) 11:45, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article passes 2, 6, 7, 10, 12 . He is notable and has also passed WP:MUSICBIO to. --Nonso Nde (talk) 13:21, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment:I also discovered that the subject also meet WP:GNG.--Nonso Nde (talk) 13:25, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nonso Nde, these sources aren't any different from the ones Bello96 has presented, infact all you just did is try to re-order their comment in order to leave a Keep vote here. In case you don't know or haven't yet come across WP:AFDEQ, the discussion may seem like a voting process, but it actually doesn't operate like one. Stanleytux (talk) 14:01, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect I noticed they are more that one artist with the same name "Sugarboy" so i think we should redirect the page to Sugarboy (musician) or Sugarboy (nigeria musician) probability with this we should be able to get more reliable source.--Yung miraboi mark (talk) 14:44, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The subject fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. He has not been discussed in reliable sources, and all of the references provided by Bello96 do not establish notability. I believe Bello96 and Nonse Nde are sockpuppets of Coal Press Nation. I am going to file a case at WP:SPI. Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 21:48, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Versace1608 what make you thick am a sockpuppets of Nons0 Nde, is it because i said he should be allowed to edit Niniola Wikipedia article if am not mistaking, what type of sockpuppets fight for the right of another what i see in the vote posted by Nonso Nde is he is just trying to modify or probably contribute to what i have already voted... Why didn't you say am a sockpuppets of Meatsgains and i also when through Coal Press Nation talk page and i saw he is really a sockpuppets of it's self, it is so clear [[User:Coal

@Versace1608: Shall we strike the confirmed sock puppets' votes? Meatsgains (talk) 01:44, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Meatsgains: I'd say yes if we have the right to do that. Since the SPI case still needs administrative action, I'm not quite sure we can strike out the comments just yet. Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 04:29, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Versace1608: My mistake, I thought the SPI was closed and it was already confirmed they were socks. No strike through yet. Meatsgains (talk) 13:43, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per lack of reliable sources to establish notability. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:10, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as examining both the contents and information found nothing actually convincing for the applicable notability thus still entirely questionable. SwisterTwister talk 21:03, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
