Opinion
I just heard Nanes Symphony for Strings on Music Choice Classical Masterpieces. Good enough for an article. Not all vanity publishing is bad. Who are the gatekeepers anyway?

In prior cases, I have found far less notable people with unchallenged articles using a brief sampling with random page. I listed a few in Talk for the Ted Alan Worth article then under challenge for notability. Examples included a swimmer who never won anything or even made an Olympic team and a Bishop who was born, ordained, promoted to bishop (as thousands are) and died. Those are still there last time I checked. None of them did one thing, based on the article, as notable as completing and recording the Symphony for Strings I heard to today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jszigeti (talk • contribs) 17:06, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Birth year
For what it's worth, I checked Nanes's copyright registrations at the U.S. Copyright Office and his birth year is consistently listed as 1928.

(To check; go to www.copyright.gov, click Search Copyright Records, type Nanes, Richard in the search box and select the Name option in your search. There are 23 registrations; two list no birth year; the other 21 say 1928. Unfortunately, it's a session-based website, so you can't copy a persistent link.)

This probably falls into WP:OR, so I'm not going to update the article with it, but that would have been the information he himself provided to the Copyright Office in his registrations. TJRC (talk) 04:24, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
