No claim in article of meeting the general notability requirements or the criteria for musicians. Good faith google search isn't turning up evidence of notability. --Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:24, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This appears to be a promotional Wiki-article with nebulous claim of notability and no secondary reliable sources to justify inclusion. Article was previously deleted in 2016 for lack of notability; the situation hasn't changed. Originating editor appears to be subject's listed "agent" Kyle Treadwell editing with a clear conflict of interest. --Leflyman^Talk 02:13, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm so confused at why this is happening. All myself and others were trying to do is make the page more credible by adding more sources and now you want to delete a page that has been up for well over two years. When there are many more entries on this site that have fair less credible sources then Corey does.

Our team was simply trying to add items to make his page a better read for visitors with more to engage with and read everything with sources (or what we believe are very credible sources). So please instead of hastily deleting our work understand our intention was to make his page better not get it deleted.

Delete does not meet any of our notability standards for musicians.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:08, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - clearly a promotional article, which also has an unstated COI issue. Fails WP:GNG with not enough in-depth coverage from independent reliable sources, and certainly doesn't meet WP:MUSICBIO. Might consider salting the article, in light of the paid editors comments above, and that fact that it was recreated only a month, using a slightly different dab, after the first article was AfD'd.
