Comment He reached number one on the U.S. dance chart on the single "Love Is Gone". I'm having trouble finding significant individual coverage in English but there are tons of sources in French. ~ Eóin (talk) 02:11, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I do realise that, however the song is apparently by David Guetta and his page im guessing was only created due to this. Metagraph comment 12:05, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The improvements and addition of multiple media mentions by Paul Erik does it for me. ~ Eóin (talk) 19:50, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – There is a fair amount of media coverage (also with the search terms "Chris Willis" and "gospel"), though it does appear that much of it is coverage primarily of David Guetta. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 02:58, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – It turns out that Willis had many non-trivial mentions in the media in the 1990s during his career as a gospel singer. I've added several references. There is also one that I did not add because I do not have access to the full text of it, but it looks promising: Sturdivant, Kevin D. "Singer Chris Willis mixes it up", The Tennessean, 1997-08-15, p. F1. Anyway, there's enough sourcing in the article even as it stands now, for WP:MUSIC criterion #1.

Keep – just the 6 singles he is featured in with David Guetta is enough notability.. and he meats the criteria for musicians in more then one way. Bambinn (talk) 02:10, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
