No indication of meeting notability guidelines. References are either primary, paid for content, or routine listings. noq (talk) 23:15, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. This artist has been releasing music via Spinnin' Records, one of the most notable EDM record labels in the world. Not only that, he's been releasing via Hardwell's record label as well "Revealed Recordings". Hardwell is currently the second best DJ in the world. Also, Ryos has been getting massive coverage from many reliable sources. He also performed with some of the most famous singers and musicians like Ariana Grande, J.Cole and many more on the Billboard Hot 100 music festival. His music will definitely get into a national chart soon and by then he will be notable enough as per WP:MUSICBIO. - Rizzal Hopper (talk) 10:31, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Who he releases music through is not enough to establish notability. Where is the massive coverage in reliable sources - I'm not seeing any and there is nothing in the article that would qualify for that. Who he has performed with is also irrelevant as notability is not inherited. Your prediction that he will chart soon is WP:CRYSTAL. As yet, there is no notability so this article is WP:TOOSOON. noq (talk) 10:46, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Fails WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. Appears to have no works that have charted or won significant awards; nothing to support notability per WP:MUSICBIO. Magnolia677 (talk) 19:53, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment I'm not weighing in either keep or delete here, but I agree that the numerous sources are basically just junk. What's left after they are screened out is at least one possible sign of notability: a billed appearance at the Billboard hot 100 music fest. I don't know much about this fest other than it's primary existence is to promote Billboard. I assume his inclusion in the line up must count for something, but I'm puzzled by why an artist worthy enough of participation lacks other obvious signs of outside, independent notability, which many (though not all) of the other artists at this fest seem to have.

• Delete per WP:PROMO; basically an advertorial with junk sources. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:35, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete supporting speedy. Violates WP:ADV, a long-established guideline. Wikipedia is not a free web hosting server.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:35, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
