Contested deletion

[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because…

J.Lately who is currently a rapper from the SF Bay Area, and I found J.Lately performing

I have found many reliable online articles written on him, and there were legitimate sources that are comparable to other artists I looked up.

He is a serious full-time music artist that tours across the country and performs with other big name artists. One such notable artist, Zion I whose is listed on your wikipedia page, has made songs in the past with him dating to two years ago, and more recently one month ago, on 2 of J.Lately's albums. J.Lately most recent album was released under Zion I's record label "Mind Over Matter."

Additionally, J.Lately has toured across the country with big name artists from the San Francisco Bay Area, such as Zion I, Locksmith, and Los Rakas. Most recently, this winter of 2015, he toured across country with these artists going all over the West Coast in the Rapture Tour

These are all big name artists that preform internationally, and are local legends from the SF Bay Area. J.Lately represents as a rapper from the SF Bay Area preforming at the same venues and same shows as these artists, and passes this automated "lack of asserted importance" standard set in wiki's filtering system.

Additionally, I understand other people who have bands or make music have illegitimately tried to create wikipedia pages on them, and as a result, wikipedia filtering system uses strict scrutiny for any band or music artists, but in those cases I believe they were not proper sources. In J.Lately case, he has been interviewed and covered in reliable sources that I have found and cited.

Please read over the story I have written and see the numerous sources I have cited.

Thank you very much for you time

I have removed the speedy tag; there seems to at least be a claim of significance here. An Articles for Deletion discussion can still be opened, if desired. 331dot (talk) 22:08, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
