Trey Bruce[edit]

Asserts notability as co-writer of several notable songs, but absolutely no reliable sources found. The only source is his website, and the only other sources I found online were unreliable or trivial. Gnews turns up only false positives and one article that gives only a one sentence mention. You'd think as the son of a notable singer, there'd be more about him, but alas, it ain't so.

(Note: I wrote the article but don't think it qualifies for G7. Granted, none of the edits from other users are particularly substantial, but it has been around for more than 3 years.) Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 02:58, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I agree with the 2007 Ten Pound Hammer who created this article about the co-writer of three number 1 country songs and not the 2010 deletionist Ten Pound Hammer who wants to blow it up. Writing one #1 song may not confer notability, but playing a part in three of them does... —Carrite, Sept. 27, 2010.

Neither the 2007 me nor the 2010 me were rabid, slobbering inclusionists... Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 22:42, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a little challenge for you. Go back over the last 14 (or 30) days of AFDs and count up my DELETE votes versus my KEEP votes. I will bet you 20 American dollars that there are more of the former than the latter. —Carrite, Sept. 28, 2010.

Keep I have added his 2001 Best Original Song Emmy Award along with a source to this article. I will continue to search for more, but the award itself should clear up any concerns about notability. Jim Miller ^{See me | Touch me} 23:16, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
