Recently deleted via AfD. Non-notable artist/composer/writer etc etc with only one notable source in article, being "Rolling Stone" magazine. Google search comes up with nothing, other than website of said artist. Nordic Nightfury 16:04, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete for exactly the same reasons as before – I said "Fails WP:COMPOSER as it all appears to be inherited notability: the song being notable and charting doesn't make him automatically notable. And even most of the songs listed in the article fail WP:NSONG notability themselves, despite their blue links (often to an unrelated article): "Mood Ring" is just an extra track on the Japan-only version of the Britney Spears album, "I" is one of five tracks on an EP, the Aaron Carter song didn't chart, etc." I don't see anything to make me change my opinion, there is no major coverage of Mr Asher himself apart from the occasional passing mention (the Rolling Stone article and second Billboard reference make no mention of Mr Asher at all). The author is an SPA who just works on getting Jon Asher-related articles onto Wikipedia and is quite possibly Mr Asher himself. Purely WP:PROMO.

  • Comment: Is another AfD for this really needed? I did not see the previously deleted version, but from the comment given by Richard3120 it looks as if this is just a recreation of a previously deleted article which probably could have just been tagged for speedy deletion per WP:G4. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:26, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete for reasons of recreation; I requested a speedy deletion. K.e.coffman (talk) 17:27, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete, per G4 and also does not meet GNG. Kierzek (talk) 18:12, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
