Im trying to write an article about a rapper named twisted insane, but i don't know hes real name and i have searched everywhere. Do i have to have the real name to make an article about him? Mradrian1106 (talk) 14:08, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
- No, if "Twisted insane" is the name he is known by that would do for the article title. What you do need is references that show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" to demonstrate WP:Notability. See WP:42, and also WP:MUSICBIO for the notability guideline for musical performers. I will add below a "Welcome" message giving some useful links - it's worth reading WP:Your first article carefully. JohnCD (talk) 15:04, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
