Cannot find any reliable independent sources to support notability per WP:MUSICBIO. Sources in article do not support notability.
This article was repeatedly created at Dasith Gamage until the article title was locked. It was then created as a draft under this new title and then moved by the creator to mainspace without going through AFC review. Schazjmd  (talk) 20:30, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - long-term abuse; clear WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG fail. Can't find any WP:RS in searches. See also SPI case Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:50, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - For the reasons given above. Admins should consider investigating the IP addresses housing the accounts that keep trying to recreate this kid's article. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 22:14, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete, clearly fails WP:MUSICBIO - lacks reliable secondary sources. Dan arndt ( talk) 22:18, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nom. Probably could've been speedied. - KH-1 ( talk) 01:34, 13 September 2021 (UTC) reply
    Since it had been speedied several times previously, I figured an AfD would be a more solid solution (and then future attempts could use G4). Schazjmd  (talk) 06:13, 13 September 2021 (UTC) reply
I agree. This has been created under at least three 'different' accounts now and under at least three different names to bypass salting. AfD and G4 is absolutely the way to go, especially since SPI is backlogged to hell currently. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 06:51, 13 September 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. Pharaoh of the Wizards ( talk) 03:04, 15 September 2021 (UTC) reply
    Hello everyone, @ Pharaoh of the Wizards@ Schazjmd@ Spideroneand @ KH-1
    I am the contributor of Dasith Gamage's article.  His article has been nominated for deletion.  You have mentioned the reasons above.  I read everything.  I agree with your comments.  Many of you have mentioned here about WP: MUSICBIO I read and understood it well.  Somehow I spent a few days looking for Dasith's information to get any information that matches WP: MUSICBIO.  Sources about him and his music are also included in the article written about him in Google news.  Luckily I found out about a relationship that won a music competition in ‘verse 9’ of WP: MUSICBIO.  But unfortunately it showed some problem in inserting it into the article.  That reference was related to the blacklist.  Please help me to keep dasith's article .Thanks!
    Note- I will not be allowed to send that reference link here.  Says something like this.(“ Your edit was not saved because it contains a new external link to a site registered on Wikipedia's blacklist or Wikimedia's global blacklist.”)

    WP:MUSICBIO #9 states Has won first, second or third place in a major music competition. Not just a music competition, but a major music competition. If the only source you are able to find is on a blacklisted site, I'd wager that the music competition is not a major one. Schazjmd  (talk) 18:20, 15 September 2021 (UTC) reply
