Proposed deletion of Hector Delgado (record producer)[edit]

The article Hector Delgado (record producer) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. DBrown SPS 01:18, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I don't understand why the page is proposed for deletion as it has multiple references to and from other pages. Some of the references have mistakes with another artist page and edits keep getting made with the wrong references which I am having to go back and constantly edit. Is there a way to prevent the page from being deleted? Rddelgado (talk) 19:04, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That proposed deletion was in July. The PROD template was removed with this edit by an IP; removing the PROD was quite proper (though the uncivil edit summary was not). So the article is not now under threat of deletion, though its referencing is weak, being mainly primary source material, i.e. things he wrote himself. The WP:Notability requirement is for references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", see also WP:Notability (summary).
