Deletion of Tom MacDonald (rapper)

Comment: I fully understand why this article was nominated as it certainly fails the notability criteria for musicians at the moment. However Tom MacDonald has been making waves and causing a fair bit of coverage as he is one of the few rappers to openly express a conservative/right-wing position through his music. There are a fair bit of sources regarding this (see https://babe.net/2018/02/12/this-white-rapper-just-released-a-music-video-so-woke-it-ended-racism-forever-34462 1, http://groovedetector.com/tom-macdonald/ 2, https://subnomics.com/2018/08/13/tom-macdonald-is-putting-heart-back-into-rap/ 3, https://aminoapps.com/c/metal/page/blog/nets-nmw-a-look-at-the-greatest-genius-to-ever-grace-hip-hop-tom-macdonald/G57c_nu0K7lYMvZjon4NDdkM3VL5za0 4, https://lemonwire.com/2018/12/28/strong-sentiments-against-the-man-nova-palohek-and-tom-macdonald-gfbf/ 5). These citations could certainly be better, and by and large I feel the slightest inclination that the subject might just pass , although the delete !votes certainly have their logic

Comment: Nothing here passes , and nothing even tries — an IP separately added an unverified claim about his popularity on social media, but it got reverted within a few hours because in addition to being unsourced, "got X number of views on a piece of social media content" is not a notability claim in the first place. And the two references present here are WordPress blogs, not reliable or notability-supporting real media. Yes, this is possibly just , so no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he actually has a credible notability claim and the correct kind of reliable source coverage to support it — but Wikipedia is not a public relations venue on which aspiring musicians are entitled to have articles for the publicity, so just because somebody is purportedly "making waves" in the blogosphere is not enough. We're an encyclopedia on which achieving something noteworthy comes ''first'' and ''then'' the Wikipedia article ''follows'', not vice versa
