A whole lot of WP:COATRACKing that adds up to nothing, article was apparently created by the subject. Has no musical releases cited to anything, has nothing academic that would meet that either. Local play only on specific programs does not denote rotation. No reviews, no other material that would lead to a sense of coverage. MSJapan (talk) 20:26, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Discussion about other related WP:WALLEDGARDEN articles and COI (recommend !voters to read it) |
- Originally I had said, at the William Susman AfD, that I didn't think Belarca Records would be viable as stand-alone article, however, this may be sufficient independent reliable sources on their CDs for such article:
- So the article could be somewhat like this: its lead section about the label's founder and the Naxos distribution;
- First section about artists and ensembles: current AfD articles that may redirect to this section:
- Also the formerly deleted Francesco Di Fiore may redirect here
- Second section about the label's releases. Current AfDs that may redirect here:
- Other titles can be made into redirects to this section too.
- (sorry for the unusual presentation of this plan: I created this reply on a separate page in my userspace in order to post it as a template on several AfDs concurrently) --Francis Schonken (talk) 08:15, 22 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem with this, if I have understood you correctly, is that Belarca Records is not a notable label and currently redirects to William Susman, who at least has a marginal notability. It is basically no different than a self-published book. It has very few recordings, and all of them including or devoted to Susman's work. And note that it is marketed through Naxos Direct, which, as has been pointed out. is no different to Amazon or CDBaby. It is not a sub-label of Naxos Records. Finally, small labels like this draw their notability from the notability of the artists and ensembles who record for them. If none of them are independently notable, then neither is the label. In my view, this is not helpful. The decision should be made on each of the artist/ensemble articles separately. This kind of transclusion of a sub-discussion also causes a potential mess in AfDs.

- Except this has nothing to do with Susman as an artist, and therefore nothing to do with his AfD. You're creating a WP:NOTINHERITED problem, which is what is trying to be cleaned up in the first place. MSJapan (talk) 17:37, 22 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Suggesting to hold discussion on a possible resucitation of Belarca Records as an article in its own right (to which this article could possibly redirect) centralised at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Erika Tazawa. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:04, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
