John Rae (Musician)[edit]

Procedural nomination. I had previously tagged this with a notability tag, as I was unsure of its notability. Someone else came and dropped a CSD A7 tag on it, which I disagreed with. I'm sending it over to you guys. NuclearWarfare _(Talk) 20:18, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep--Article has sufficient sources to meet any criteria for inclusion. --Jmundo (talk) 04:04, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as improved by Malcolmxl5. RS coverage is obviously there and copyvio issues are solved. • Gene93k (talk) 07:31, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Rename John Rae (Musician) to John Rae (musician) (capitalization) and delete John rae scottish drummer for failing the naming conventions. It was created a day later by the same editor, who was probably unaware of naming conventions or redirects. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:41, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Note I have have deleted John rae scottish drummer per CSD G6 Housekeeping and a little WP:IAR, as it was clearly a copy of John Rae (Musician) and was not worthwhile turning into a redirect as it is an implausible search term. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:24, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
