Rucka Rucka Ali

I am not quite sure why you nominated the article on Rucka Rucka Ali for deletion. He is a controversial artist who has been banned from youtube numerous times for his work. His work was also featured in a BBC news story (link) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10345282 it references one of his vieeos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.2.4.199 (talk) 04:21, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Uh was a long time ago. Anyway, I didn't nominated it, I just acted on somebody else's nomination. As the log says, it was deleted per " CSD A7, was an article about a band, singer, musician, or musical ensemble that didn't assert the importance or significance of the subject.". As at the time of its last deletion, its text said just "Rucka Rucka Ali is a Musician based out of Detriot, MI and is known for his parodies of popular songs.", which I think quite match said criteria. There really wasn't anything at all to say why he matched our guidelines. Also, it has been deleted 5 times for the same reasons. Best regards, Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 07:09, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
