No clear demonstration of notability. Struggling to find any independent in-depth coverage. Fails WP:BIO. Edwardx (talk) 22:17, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: Nominator has placed the tag without going in deep to the references placed. Independent and in-depth coverage is seen in Deccan Chronicle , Huffington Post, Malayala Manorama, Media One TV, The Times of India Malayalam and lot more including News24, Indian Express , Mathrubhumi . Moreover, there are number of radio interviews from Hit 96.7 and an interview in 94.3 Club FM - club fm interview, which was not referenced as it was seen in youtube. What more you need to prove the notability nominator ? . BetterSmile:D (talk) 00:20, 22 August 2017 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE 04:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
These are merely links to WP pages, where are the specific links to independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources? YouTube is not enough. Edwardx (talk) 16:25, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
COMMENT Are you really blind ? or acting blind, The references are all from reliable top news papers and top radio stations and the articles in all those are in depth and in detail, many are interviews.. There is no youtube link as reference Mr. Nominator. BetterSmile:D (talk) 16:45, 22 August 2017 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE 04:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The specific links are pretty obviously in our article. Whether or not they demonstrate notability can be argued, but it can't be claimed that they haven't been provided. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:49, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep : Article , Malayali composer Jibin George Sebastian’s composition for the English film Unbridled has musicians from all over the world chipping in as seen in page reference is a reliable source Deccan Chronicle is India's leading national news paper. Article ,Artists Are Everywhere in Huffington Post written by well known author Traci is a reliable source reference seen in the article. Radio interview HOLLYWOOD MUSIC DIRECTOR JIBIN GEORGE SEBASTIAN ON RADIOACTIVE in Hit FM radio is a reliable source. Article Interview with Music director Jibin Sebastian in Malayala Manorama is a reliable source. Article , Tracking a youthful beat is a reliable source. All the mentioned above articles are from top news papers / radio and I found many other reliable articles as well. All the above gives in depth coverage to the person or talks only about him or his achievements. So I feel it passes notability very well. 137.97.10.237 (talk) 14:36, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note I've semi-protected this page owing to block evasion by IPs above, the 137 is as obvious as it gets and I've struck the comment. —SpacemanSpiff 15:02, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The source http://news24hours.in/2016/09/10/a-hollywood-movie-song-composed-by-jibin-utilized-musicians-and-studios-from-5-countries/ doesn't appear to meet our requirement for "a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy" - actually News 24 hours doesn't seem to have a reputation for anything. The http://www.siliconindia.com/profiles/Jibin-George-Sebastian-bXLJU1eT.html is a self-penned profile of Jibin George Sebastian. The http://epaper.newindianexpress.com/1288213/The-New-Indian-Express-Kochi/20072017#page/19/2 article has a single mention of his name. About the only genuine coverage seems to be in the Deccan Chronicle. That's really not "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" as required by WP:GNG. And the fact that the entire article was concocted by a blocked sockpuppet linked to a paid editing farm (see User talk:Bettersmiley #Blocked) doesn't inspire confidence in the chances of finding any better sources. --RexxS (talk) 18:31, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as WP:TOOSOON, although he did write a song Sometimes I Can't Relate for a real film, Unbridled (film), it a minor film and is too slender a thread to support notability all by itself. I just tagged Sometimes I Can't Relate for notability, but it should probably be merged into the film's page. Teh other song linked from page is also at AfD, and looks marginal at best. Ir may simply be WP:TOOSOON for a bio page.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:04, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
