There currently are no references or citations on this page. This also indicates a lack of notoriety as reputable sources seem to be lacking to find these citations. Thus it fails GNG due to a lack of "Independent of the subject" since any citations that can be found all seem to be self promotion. Apriestofgix (talk) 21:09, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

  • Keep This has over 300k hits on google. I'm pretty sure this is a notable person, remember, WP:AFDISNTCLEANUP. If there's no sources, fix it! ThePlatypusofDoom (talk) 22:03, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

::I would normally agree, however this is a biographical page, and thus should be subjected to more scrutiny when it comes to unsourced material. Apriestofgix (talk) 16:02, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

::The number of hits on Google does not show notability. However, since you seem to be interested in fixing it, see my !vote below. Perhaps you could start with those links, and prove notability. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 23:30, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

  • Delete Total lack of reliable third party sources to pass GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:16, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Weak delete but draft-ify if anyone is willing to adopt it. BLPs really, really need to have sufficient reliable sources. This article currently has no sources (the one source specified is to Wikipedia itself, and thus invalid). This also means that, were this article to be kept, it ought to be stub-ified, since any claims are unreferenced. My problem is that I have a feeling that Hixxy might actually be notable. I found some information about him in a Google books listing for [https://books.google.com/books?id=IxEpAyPvyXoC&pg=PT56&dq=%22Hixxy%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwijgrfN55vMAhXFeD4KHfI3DlYQ6AEIJDAB#v=onepage&q=%22Hixxy%22&f=false Drum n Bass The Rough Guide]. I've also seen passing mention of him as "happy hardcore royalty" (for example, [http://www.bitterwallet.com/all-hail-the-brilliant-tennents-letter/90779 at this link]). Lacking more proof, the article should be deleted; even with more a little more proof, virtually everything in the article should be deleted until sources can be found. If anyone is interested and knowledgable in the area, this would be a great time to request a move to draft space. Barring that, it's time to delete. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 23:25, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Delete as I'm not finding anything better and the current article is not convincing. SwisterTwister talk 03:56, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
