Untitled[edit]

I think it needs to be noted that he still has no record contract.

This musician fails the basics of WP:MUSIC due to a lack of non-trivial coverage by third party sources. If none can be located over the next few days I will nominate this article for deletion. JBsupreme (talk) 19:37, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Illmaculate was signed to Wapikiya Records, LLC in 2010. His album "Skrill Talk" releases under Wapikiya Records, LlC and Sandpeople Music on April 17th, 2012.

External links[edit]

Per WP:ELBURDEN, I've removed the link. Given the promotional nature of the site, it probably doesn't belong. After searching Wikipedia, I cannot find any discussion about it: Nothing at WP:RSN nor WP:ELN. I am seeing some discussions at AfD discussions where editors note it's a merchant site, not an indicator of notability, but might be considered reliable. I'm not clear if this qualifies as a link that should be excluded per WP:ELPOINTS#1 and WP:ELNO#5. --Ronz (talk) 16:30, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that all the external links in the Albums section should definitely be removed for the reasons above. --Ronz (talk) 19:38, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

🙁 You are a dildo for stating that because it does not violate the external link Wikipedia guidelines look up bandcamp, omg do you really this it's a merchant site if so, you are insane and should have your editing rights revoked. if this gets removed again I will contact illmaculate and he will revoke any privileges of non administrators from editing this page because it keeps getting vandalized. 68.186.4.86 (talk) 21:57, 10 January 2017 (UTC) Stay off his page or else. :)[reply]

Could you comment on the rest of the links? --Ronz (talk) 23:17, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed them in the meantime.

I'm not very familiar with what websites are appropriate as references and external links for music-related articles. http://www.allmusic.com/artist/illmaculate-mn0000546475 only lists four works, so not very helpful even if it could be used. http://www.discogs.com/artist/714730-iLLmacuLate lists five, but is not a reliable source. --Ronz (talk) 16:37, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Given the continued edit-warring and lack of response here, I've requested help at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Music#Requesting_assistance_for_Illmaculate_discography_and_external_links--Ronz (talk) 16:55, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
