This is the biography of a musician and composer of library music for film and television. There's a lot of name-dropping (not all for people with their own Wikipedia pages) but notability is not inherited and I cannot find anything that would fulfill the notability criteria at WP:CREATIVE or WP:ANYBIO. There are a few other musicians with the same name, but this Peter Taylor doesn't appear to have garnered significant coverage. Also bundling Peter Reno, a music project with which he was involved alongside Cliff Twemlow, whose page was recently deleted. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 10:40, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

• Delete. I can only find articles or books mentioning a writer named Peter Taylor, or a musician named Russell Peter Taylor, but nothing on this exact Peter Taylor. The source cited is from this publisher, which does not seem be notable or reliable. As for the two external links provided, the first one only has this much to say about the artist, and the second one did not even mention the subject. Coupled with the fact that Studiostrooz only ever edited this page and the page for Peter Reno, leads me to believe that this article is only ever written for self promotion.
