Derek Deakins[edit]

No sources found. Only assertation of notability is that he has played for other artists, but notability is not inherited. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 19:55, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Copied from talk page: "I think side man musicians are important in documenting any kind of music. Derek has played with two well-known groups in country music. I think there need to be more articles on sidemen because they are the ones that make the big stars sound good and nobody ever knows who they are unless you can read about them somewhere."

Delete unsourced and unreferenced --Dreamspy (talk) 19:26, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Fix article and restart AFD Something has messed up the article so the references are hidden, but, they're there - edit it and you see them. I wasn't able to fix it, maybe an admin must do it. Till then anyone who claims it is unreferenced should be disregarded, since, the references are present but not showing up properly.

- I think the ref tags have been screwed up actually. Stifle (talk) 12:58, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete--I agree with the nominator. Tone and most of the content already aren't appropriate, but there is also a lack of notability. Drmies (talk) 22:57, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
