Non-notable musician who's only claim to fame is as a guitarist for Avril Lavigne and as notability isn't inherited and he doesn't appear to be notable per WP:MUSIC in his own right, hence the AfD. Google links appear to be either blogs, lyrics sites or publicity/press releases etc WebHamster 00:28, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I think it should be kept. From my own POV, the article seems like a okay written one, with a lot of notable information and, with a little work from the prodded authors, could be improved. --Revanche (talk) 01:12, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete for now per WP:CRYSTAL, article makes a lot of claims of future success that may or may not pan out. Burzmali (talk) 15:47, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Has co-written charting songs, which makes it notable per WP:MUSIC. (I also think there should be enough published material about him, but have no direct proof of that right now.) -- Pepve (talk) 16:04, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. He would seem to qualify as a songwriter. Many "solo" acts have bands with consistent membership, individuals who may contribute significantly to the music in many ways, even if the music is released under only one person's name. They post a challenge for how to interpret the WP:MUSIC criteria. I suggest a useful comparison here is the case of Del Palmer, Kate Bush's bass player; see[1], [2].
