This musician doesn't seem to meet GNG. Although plenty of sources make passing reference, I'm struggling to find much/any significant coverage. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 21:40, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to The Cult. The best, and only non trivial, thing I could find, is this. Subject gets acknowledged everywhere all over the WWW, but that is it (in IRS), and is a likely search term. While subject has been in multiple contexts, the highest profile one seems to be The Cult, so redirect to there. Aoziwe (talk) 09:32, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to The Cult - He's a longtime backup/session guy with little coverage in his own right, but he has been with The Cult solidly for 6 years so they are a valid redirect target. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:56, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to The Cult - I did a Factiva news search and he comes up in the news a lot, however, it is always just in articles about the cult, mentioned as part of that. Doesn't seem to be individual notability for him, (I couldn't see one RS that spoke about him or featured him specifically) so..its a redirect from me!

  • Weak Keep Redirect to the Cult is not satisfactory. According to Aoziwe's ref, his music career started in the 1990s. According to AllMusic he was a member of NYC-based group Mink from 2006, which issued an album in 2007. They toured US and Australia. Fellow members include David Lowy and Stella Mozgawa. Mink are notable enough for their own article. Prior to the artist's American-based career, he backed Sarah McLeod. How much of his non-the Cult work can be put in that group's article? Is WP:MUSICBIO satisfied by the current article?shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 03:46, 9 January 2022 (UTC)shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 04:12, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that he is "(ex-Mink)" is already in the Cult's article. Simply change that to "{ex-Mink, Sarah McLeod)". If Mink ever gets their own article, Fitzpatrick can be mentioned there just like he is mentioned for the Cult. He still doesn't qualify for his own individual article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:51, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I put that (ex-Mink) in there, two days ago, I also added "Australian-born" and a ref.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 19:11, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
