Zero convincing reliable sources to established claimed notability; refs appear to be nothing more than the same recycled promotional/press releases. No independent coverage, does not meet WP:MUSIC. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 01:02, 18 September 2021 (UTC) reply

• Delete - appears to be a vanity article on a singer with no chart success or any following at all, having checked all social media. All of the sources look self-published and all have mostly identical content to each other, indicating that they were probably submitted by Murat himself. He's on all the usual self-published sources like Deezer, SoundCloud, IMDb etc. but nothing to indicate notability per WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG.

• Delete Sources are from unreliable sites which don't cover him deeply. Most "Kimdir?" sources are PR pieces anyways. Also has been speedied from trwiki 25 times, which isn't a good sign. ~Styyx ^{Talk? ^-^} 13:29, 18 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete Clearly not notable. Cannot find any coverage in reliable sources. Keivan.f ^Talk 01:20, 20 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• I don't think it should be deleted. If many artists can stay on Wikipedia when there are no references, then reference pages that provide information about a cited artist should remain. The artist is verified, especially because he is known on YouTube and TikTok, which means that he is well-known in his country, partially well-known in his country. People who do not know, write to the search results, already have information, recognize and follow them fondly. Let me be frank, I just got to know you, but I follow you with love. That's why I wanted to add and contribute to Wikipedia starting with the person I love. This means that it is significant. It doesn't need to be deleted. If they contain copyright, I would appreciate if the sources were removed with your help. Because I am the creator. You can also move it to the draft section. I lead the follow-up and development of the page and invite you as well. (Google Translate) Deryakayaer ( talk) 13:36, 20 September 2021 (UTC)Deryakayaer reply
  • Comment I already tried moving it to draft and asked you to go through the WP:AFC process; you ignored that advice and moved it back to mainspace, so here we are. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 17:24, 20 September 2021 (UTC) reply

Being verified on social media doesn't mean anything for notability. I don't see a reason to draftify this. ~Styyx ^{Talk? ^-^} 11:38, 21 September 2021 (UTC) reply
