Notability of Fat Tony (rapper)[edit]

A tag has been placed on Fat Tony (rapper) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. yeahobi (talk) 17:32, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fat Tony is a new artist that has emerged in this current era of Hip Hop music that deserves a placement on Wikipedia. I am simply providing all information I've gathered on this artist from his online residences which include links to record reviews, interviews, and various press. From what I've gathered he is presently an active musician who continues to receive media attention. This is the first article I've published through Wikipedia. This article will make it convenient for all those interested in knowing more about Fat Tony. I sincerely hope more individuals knowledgeable of Fat Tony will contribute to this article as time goes on.

Shea Serrano's article in Texas Monthly should secure notability for this topic. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:11, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if this will be judged an RS, but just in case I am mentioning it on the talk page. Fat Tony talks Tom Cruz, a musician he collaborated with. WhisperToMe (talk) 09:18, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
