I'm not able to find anything on this artist that would count towards WP:GNG. Sam Sing! 22:19, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I tried as well. Sadly, nothing was found. It appears that it may be primarily a promotional article for an up-and-coming musician. Alas, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Gaff (talk) 00:40, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I cannot find anything either, and the article's references are not references at all—simply links to the websites of the various people/places he has allegedly studied under/played for. This not only fails GNG, it comprehensively fails the alternative criteria at MUSICBIO. The subject is only 23, i.e. at the very start of a possible career as a solo pianist, with no evidence of a substantial career yet.Voceditenore (talk) 18:35, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. With all due respect to Mr Marin, I do not think that he is important enough for a Wikipedia page. I have searched relevant databases and can find no evidence that he has ever released an album with a reputable label or that he performs in significant recitals and concerts.

  • Delete. Per nom. Change the Google search expression to "Ric Marin" pianist -wikipedia and there's almost nothing. Promotional article for not (yet) notable musician. --Stfg (talk) 11:32, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
