Originally deleted back in 2009, and no notability gained in the time since then. Only source is a YouTube link, and a Google search only turned up passing mentions, self-published fansites et al. Total failure of WP:N, and in particular problematic due to it being a WP:BLP article. JeffSpaceman (talk) 14:46, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The only source is an interview, which is WP:PRIMARY. Since there are no reliable sources on the article or online, this immediately fails WP:NBIO, WP:GNG and WP:NARTIST. Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 16:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A BEFORE search reveals things like messages on Reddit or Pintrest and other social media-type sites. I found nothing that is actually about him or his work other that the fact that his son is a known musician, however the father does not inherit notability through his child. I'm not finding anything like reviews, collections, notable exhibitions, articles about him, etc. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NARTIST. Netherzone (talk) 19:05, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I am not finding any information to show notability. Fails WP:GNG. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 00:34, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
