Antoinette Clinton

[edit]

Unsourced article, claim to fame is winning a competition with an unknown number of participants and no objectively provable significance. Guy (Help!) 10:46, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, unsourced claims, even if sourced would still fail WP:MUSIC. The Rambling Man 13:56, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Per Wikipedia:Notability, a topic is notable if it has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works from sources that are reliable and independent of the subject itself and each other such that there exists enough source material to write a verifiable, encyclopedic article about the topic. Although I located (1) Macias, Chris. (October 21, 2005) The Sacramento Bee She's got the beat: Antoinette 'Butterscotch' Clinton, an internationally recognized beatbox wizard, puts percussion where her mouth is. Section: SCENE; Page J1. and (2) Liu, Marian. (January 3, 2007) San Jose Mercury News Beatboxing: an oral history:Hip-hoppers turn to voice-based rhythms, there is not enough source material to write a verifiable, encyclopedic article about the topic. Since there is not enough Wikipedia qualified source material that would permit editors to write a verifiable, encyclopedic article about the topic, the topic does not meet Wikipedia:Notability requirements. Thus, although this appears to be an important subject, I believe that the article should be deleted as not presently meeting Wikipedia notability requirements. -- Jreferee 19:40, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete There's also an article in the Sacramento Hornet about her, but I'm not convinced. One Night In Hackney 19:47, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete I am not sure about the significance of a German beatboxing championship. I am not sure about the WP:RS. TonyTheTiger 20:46, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
