Delete, or possibly Merge with Straightjacket Fits article. No independent notability. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 04:56, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. David Wood was a well known figure on the nz music scene. I would question the knowledge of Derbycountyinnz — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angusparish (talk • contribs) 11:55, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. Borderline, but he was a member of two different bands each of which is notable enough for its own article. Same with bandmate Mark Petersen (musician). If the decision is to merge or delete then that article should also go the same way. Grutness...wha? 23:38, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Just sneaks over the borderline for me too, and as Wiki isn't going to run out of paper, then.....Moriori (talk) 01:16, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete, agree this is borderline though. I would say merge to Straightjacket Fits, but the only info here that's not in that article is the Herald quote, which IMO wouldn't be missed, and his birth year (which seems to be wrong[1][2]). --Avenue (talk) 11:58, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
