this person is not notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xedgerx (talk • contribs) 14:06, 21 August 2008— Xedgerx (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
Speedy keep: The article asserts notability. Nom has also nominated articles relating to this person. The only contribs nom has is for 3 AfDs, this and 2 related articles. The main article is notable. – Jerryteps 02:24, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]- Delete An article asserting notability is not the same thing as establishing it. The three sources attached to the article don't help--two are press releases about his band, and the third is a myspace.com page. There are zero independent sources about the subject's notability. The article, other than his discography, consists of unsourced commentary on his playing style--probably because the sources don't exist to expand this article to anything approaching encyclopedic quality.

- Comment: Nom is a WP:SPA. That's why I didn't take an indepth look at the article. I'm sorry and I wont make the mistake again. – Jerryteps 08:35, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete was going to say redirect to the band but, as they also seem to fail the criteria for inclusion (and I note already listed for deletion as well) that would be pointless. Jasynnash2 (talk) 10:42, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
