Aroshanti[edit]

I tried to speedy this a couple years ago, it was contested and I forgot about it. Recently came up for me and going over it again it doesn't seem to belong here on WP:N grounds, as well as WP:RS.

Firstly, the creator of the article seems to have a COI as the user name is the same as one of the sources used (the company doesn't seem to have a webpage anymore), and the article certainly sounds promotional. For instance, "Working with MG Music, record label of platinum record selling world musician Medwyn Goodall, Aroshanti released two best selling [...]"

Secondly, the sourcing is all primary record lable save for one dead link and one new-agey magazine that doesn't appear to carry any notability itself. The music itself seems to be a spiritual new-agey thing as well, though that's what I gather from reading as I have no heard it.

Lastly, a google news and web search turned up nothing to help with the notability problem, though primary sources do exist marginally.

To sum up: no good sources and written to be promotional SÆdon ^talk 05:54, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
