Untitled[edit]

Pl look in to it.I just made the page with some changes. This does not have claims for fastest bass playing. He is accepted as a fast bassist undoubtedly. He has a unique style to play slap bass. But I have not written it as a unique style( to make it neutral).Please do advidse me to make it reappear in the main page without further deletion. Thanks a lot.--Musicindia1 (talk) 17:57, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You need reliable, verifiable sources that prove he is the fastest bass player. Being simply a fast bass player is not enough for notability for the Wikipedia. Websites are not reliable sources for world record claims. A book should be cited together with its page or entry number. It should also explain 'why' he is a fast bass player. For example, i could slap a bass very fast indeed, but I do not need even to be a musician to do that.--Kudpung (talk) 01:48, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

History of this article[edit]

It was previously deleted back in January 2010 after discussion see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jayen Varma (2nd nomination) This note is is simply being placed for historical record. I personally do not have any opinion regarding this article Dbiel ^(Talk) 01:12, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have speedied it G4, it has been recreated twice, possibly by the subject. Rich Farmbrough, 01:30, 17 October 2011 (UTC).[reply]

It did not of course have enough links at the time of previous deletions. Now it has many credible links. Thanks if you you can recreate it. (Musicindia1 (talk) 15:03, 17 October 2011 (UTC))[reply]

I have restored the article and also merged the old history from MusicIndia's user space. It is better sourced, though I have my doubts about Record Republic, maybe one for the RD noticeboard. This restoration is, of course, without prejudice to future AfD's. Rich Farmbrough, 10:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC).[reply]
