Draft that was declined and eventually deleted. User requested undeletion to improve it and instead simply removed the decline notice and moved the draft to articlespace. Fails WP:NBIO. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:09, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry.. I thought I'd addressed all the concerns before republishing.
Not sure how I can improve on the resources re: notability. He's been widely cited in both mainstream (BBC, ITV) and specialist media (added a few more references) and is broadly known in the Welsh music scene. Open to suggestions. Testedonanimalsuk (talk) 15:20, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How is this edit addressing anything? You just removed two unsourced sentences and decline notice (which explicitly tells you not to do so until the article is accepted.) ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:22, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry.. I meant I made edits suggested before the draft article timed out... I thought I was just late to publishing. Testedonanimalsuk (talk) 15:24, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You requested undeletion claiming you wanted to make edits but instead simply moved it to article space after only removing two sentences and the decline notice. The last comment before you unilaterally moved it to articlespace made it clear the article was not approved and wouldn't be without large changes. None of which you actually made.

Also worth noting he's been referenced in exhibitions curated by the Museum of Wales with respect to Welsh Hip Hop Testedonanimalsuk (talk) 15:22, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
