Almost no reliable sourcing on the page (mostly just discogs.com). Very little sourcing on this individual appears to be available. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 21:18, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

True, that was someone in indie filmmaking and this Shane Valdez is a punk musician. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:14, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Fails notability and WP:MUSICBIO. I was unable to find any additional news about this person. Maxcreator (talk) 03:00, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - This looks like an attempted self-promotion to drum up new business for a very non-notable music career. He has been a temporary or short-term member of a long series of local bands, only one of which is semi-notable enough to have a WP article (Plankeye, and even they are iffy), and filled in the gaps by working as a road tech and amateur photographer. This has generated some basic credits at directory services, which make up most of the article's attempted citations, but he's never been anywhere close to notability. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:21, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments - this theoretically could pass WP:MUSICBIO based on allegations that he marketed "Vans shoes and the now defunct company Rimshot Drumsticks," and with the band "Bonesaw completed an eight-country European tour...." However, better sources must be found per WP:BLP. Right now, it needs to be blown up and many fixes made. Can it be userfied? Bearian (talk) 16:21, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Clear case of self-promotion and meets WP:GNG. Delete. Go4thProsper (talk) 14:23, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
