The result was delete. The keep arguments mention things that may indicate notability, but which do not demonstrate that the subject meets one of our actual criteria. Vanamonde (Talk) 18:44, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sources aren't reliable, list track listings. Nothing to indicate it is notable enough for inclusion. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:17, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete, nn recording by artiste without article; had YMA4 existed I would say redirect.TheLongTone (talk) 16:45, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

*Speedy delete — Falls under speedy deletion criteria as a non-notable album without a parent artist article (the artist is likely not notable anyways).TheGracefulSlick (talk) 18:15, 13 January 2019 (UTC) editor has been blocked.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:07, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

They weren't blocked for socking, so really the !vote shouldn't be struck as there is no basis for striking votes of non-socks. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:18, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep — The album was required by one of the biggest record label in South Africa "Gallo Records and the label had number of meetings with YMA4 about record and publishing deals including Sheer Music. They also met with Nasty C for upcoming projects. The duo performed a song named " Myself" from the mixtape on "Expression", a programme on SABC 1. Dwayne Moony 15:39, 14 January 2019 (UTC).[reply]

None of that matters for this particular album article because the album has not been discussed in the media, and all information about it (including the sources in the article now) are simply listings at retail/streaming sites like you would find for any other run-of-the-mill album. Also, per Wikipedia policy there should be no album article if there is no article for the rap duo. Consider creating a supportable (with sources) article for the rap duo first, if there is evidence that they are notable. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 21:27, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - The album is clearly non-notable on its own terms (see my comment above), and there is no place for this album article if the band has no article of their own. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 21:28, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, These guys performed in India they shared stage with Indian rapper Rbbt, King Monada, Sho Madjozi and some of their songs were aired on BBC Radio 4. According to Notable criteria mentioned by Doomsdayer520 the mixtape meet at least certain requirements since some of the songs from the mixtape were performed on SABC's one major programmes and got airplay outside South Africa, does that make the duo not notable according to you? Surely someone will create there parent article and artists they shared stages with and programme they appeared on since they qualify to have there own articles as well.

This voting process is about the album. Whether or not the rap duo is notable will be a separate discussion when and if someone writes an article about them. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:04, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree is about the album,the album is used by South African media company, was performed on nation television show, rated for international level and it is not a self-published album.Dwayne Moony 12:07, 16 January 2019 (UTC).[reply]

• Delete. A Google search turned up no WP:RS sources whatsoever. Fails WP:NALBUM and WP:GNG. Narky Blert (talk) 14:21, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
