• Delete Fluff or vanity spam, not seeing notability as described above. Just about anyone can "release" an album on any one of the streaming media sites, it has to have traction in the media or chart or something else to be notable. Oaktree b (talk) 18:30, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thompson has been in news articles ^[1] and his music is played on K-Love which is the biggest CCM music radio station in the united states.^[2] Cherrell410 (talk) 23:03, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Q&A interviews, in which he's talking about himself in the first person, do not count as notability-building sources. Blogs do not count as notability-building sources. His own marketing materials do not count as notability-building sources. Media coverage, in which he's being discussed in the third person by real professional journalists and/or music critics in real media outlets, is what's required.

Here what? Even if we accept that as counting for something (which is debatable at best), it still takes four or five pieces like that, not just one. Bearcat (talk) 17:15, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're really not getting what's being said to you. "Newreleasetoday" is a marketing platform, not a reliable or notability-supporting media source. "Red Street Records" is his own record label, not a reliable or notability-supporting media source. College or university radio stations like Life 96.5 are not reliable or notability-supporting sources;

blogs

are not reliable or notability-supporting sources. All of which means that absolutely none of these links are reliable or notability-supporting sources, because every single one of them is one of those things.

Please learn what constitutes

bludgeon this discussion with more bad sources is not going to help anything. Bearcat (talk) 16:04, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply
