The result was speedy keep. The nominator has withdrawn their nomination, and no other editors support deletion, so I am closing this early to save everybody time and trouble. Vanamonde (talk) 04:57, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A before search I tried prior to this nomination did not yield satisfactory results so I will evaluate the current sources. The first is merely an image with a caption and the second is a namedrop. I realize this individual was before the internet, but we need something in the way of indepth secondary coverage to gauge GNG; I found slim-pickings to say the least.

Results do indeed change when the correct spelling is used so I would be alright with a withdrawal that would keep the article.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 14:45, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ The sources are nowhere near enough to show notability and in a before search I could only find passing mentions at best. Dom from Paris (talk) 04:47, 6 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep following the improvement of the article. Dom from Paris (talk) 10:09, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Sources are sufficient to meet GNG. Notable performer. The article has improved since being nominated. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 00:50, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but formatting of references needs to be brought up to standard. Although there appear to be enough of them now that work has been done, I would agree that most are passing mentions which don't contribute to notability. There are one or two exceptions. And of course the article will need to be moved to the correct spelling of "Kid Harold". Deb (talk) 07:18, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I updated a couple of references in the article. It has been improved since the nomination with more references and now meets WP:GNG. Z359q (talk) 08:27, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Yet another case that could have been avoided if the creator of the article had put some proper effort in at the beginning (such as finding out the correct name). Thanks for your hard work, everyone else. Exemplo347 (talk) 14:15, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
