Insufficient notability for this encyclopaedia – appears not to meet WP:ARTIST. This may well be an attempt at self-promotion. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:33, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
- I userfied this as an obvious autobiography. Guy (Help!) 00:12, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
- @JzG: After the userification, I closed this AFD. But since then, another editor copied the content back to mainspace, so I have reopened this discussion. -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:28, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

- Delete References confirm existence rather than notability. Also note that the article's claim of the subject having received coverage on ABC and FOX news were, in fact, merely local morning appearances on regional affiliates; these were not national network broadcast appearances. The Kennedy Center's honor award is merely one of many honors awarded to Washington DC area high school students. Neither of these represent achievements of encyclopedic worthiness.

- Initially, it seemed that the article lacked credible sources. I did some more research on the artist on the internet and included more legitimate references. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Weiserma (talk • contribs) — Weiserma (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- A number of the "sources" you added were invalid, e.g. iTunes track links. Guy (Help!) 10:08, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- Weiserma, if – as appears overwhelmingly probable – you have a professional or paid relationship to the subject of the article, you must declare it when discussing the page about him. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:21, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- I have not paid relationship to the subject (Chris Urquiaga). I do know him and have been to his concerts. --Weiserma (talk) 00:01, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

- Delete Rampant self-promotion with no evidence of coverage in WP:RS beyond simple listings and other non-significant entries. Most of search results lead to social media, YouTube, etc. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 03:46, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
