Keep: The IP who deleted all the tags really didn't do the article any favors, as those tags would have told people interested in saving the article what needed to be done to it. That said, I think Blaker is notable enough, and that there's enough out there to show he's notable. I'll try to re-work the article into something sourced and encyclopedic, as opposed to the fan-site stuff that is there now. ubiquity (talk) 13:38, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- OK, done. Since I knew nothing about Blaker when I started, you can be sure that everything is sourced. ;-) ubiquity (talk) 14:53, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - One more point to consider: 18 other articles link to this one (all links from songs Blaker has written, recorded by notable performers) ubiquity (talk) 16:03, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Ubiquity: Thanks for the constructive contributions and bringing this page up to quality standards! Meatsgains (talk) 16:33, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - After Ubiquity's edits cleaning up the page and providing additional references, the page looks much better and the subject clearly meets general notability requirements. Meatsgains (talk) 16:34, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
