Keep as a redirect.[edit]

Lil Twist is a rapper signed with Young Money Entertainment; the best thing to do is a redirect for now until Twist meets WP:MUSIC. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 23:45, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be deleted. Lil Twist clearly meets WP:Music guidelines. His music has had coverage in many large publications like XXL Magazine and Vibe Magazine, major TV like MTV and BET, blogs like missinfo, nahright etc meeting Criteria 1. His single, The Texas Twist has charted. His single Turnt up ft Busta Rhymes has charted, his single Flowerz ft Lil Wayne & Chris Brown produced by diplo has charted. He definitely meets criteria 11 & 12. Mazy1 (talk) 10:49, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Texas twist "charted locally" so does not meet the criteria, you have not given any evidence of him meeting the criteria. noq (talk) 11:06, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You should try creating the article at WP:articles for creation if you believe you can show that rather than just undue the result of the deletion debate. noq (talk) 11:08, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
