I've previously published an article that was removed because the artist was not notable enough so I want to start by justifying the existence of this article and providing examples of why the artist is notable enough to have an article. According to WP:NM, the first criteria of notability is: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself". This artist has sources from Pitchfork (On four separate occasions), Rolling Stone, Vice, Bandcamp Daily, and The Needle Drop. If these sources are not notable enough then the artist also fits criteria six: "Is an ensemble that contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles" because Elucid is a member of Armand Hammer with Billy Woods and Nostrum Grocers with Milo. Lastly, I believe that criteria number five would also apply: "Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable)" as Elucid has released multiple albums with Backwoodz Studioz, which has a roster of eleven artists including Milo, Blockhead, Kenny Segal, and Armand Hammer and has existed for over ten years.

Not quite sure what it is your'e trying to say? What article did you create that was removed? This is the talk page for Elucid and should be used to discuss ways to improve the Elucid article. Robvanvee17:16, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Basically I just wanted to start with a justification for the article's existence because last time I tried publishing an article it was immediately flagged for deletion and then I basically had to debate with people to justify the article. I'd rather give a justification early on before anyone thinks the article should be deleted. If you think it's unnecessary than we can remove this section, but I wanted to be sure that it wouldn't be immediately flagged for deletion or anything.
