Fails WP:BAND: "Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases." None of his activities outside of the band are notable. --wooden superman 11:10, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect: Not wikipedia notable outside of his band. The previously AfD debate, in which no consensus was reached, was held in the wake of his suicide, which was widely reported in the UK. With the news being so fresh and widespread there were many editors voting keep. Now that things have cooled down a bit one can more objectively judge that there simply aren't the kinds of independent, third party references outside of his role in the band that establish stand alone notability.

Merge to Inspiral Carpets. Whether or not you believe there should be a standalone article here, the idea that all this content should just disappear is simply ridiculous. --Michig (talk) 06:24, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
