WP:BLP of a composer and musician, which makes no claim that he passes WP:NMUSIC for anything. As written this just states that he exists, and then contextlessly linkfarms a pile of primary source verifications of the fact without showing a single shred of reliable source coverage in media at all. Creator also claimed at the time, both in their edit summary and on the talk page, that they would continue working on the article -- but they have never actually touched it again since the original creation on May 6. In truth this is technically speediable, but this is a followup recreation after the first attempt was speedied, so escalating it to AFD was necessary. Bearcat (talk) 14:27, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
