Uncompleted AfD by user:Hourick. I imagine this is for a non-notable musician. No opinion myself. (Moved from July 6 log) Flyguy649 talk contribs 03:56, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Hourick misplaced an afd2 template on Talk:Aaron Spears. Accompanying text is "WP:NPOV Non verifiable", "Does anybody know any info on any album's he has been on?"  I have no opinion on the AfD itself. -- Finngall   talk  04:05, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep The album cover confirms that he played on three tracks of Confessions, the Grammy-winning Album of the Year and a Billboard #1 hit album. A cleanup tag would be appropriate but he passes WP:MUSIC. -- Charlene 04:38, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 *  Very weak keep, he appears to squeak by WP:BAND. Barely.  &mdash; Coren (talk) 05:39, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per Coren. Oysterguitarist 06:01, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, allmusic has no bio as yet (always a good metric for whether we should have an article), but they credit him as Usher's producer. I actually think that's more notable than just being a session drummer. The article is chatty and needs cleanup. --Dhartung | Talk 06:21, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Correction Scratch that, the article had it buried that he produced two tracks. But I did find him winning the 2006 Modern Drummer "Up and Coming" poll, satisfying the recognition-by-peers criterion. --Dhartung | Talk 06:24, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep, per charlene and also since he is the drummer of one of the most notable R&B (not Pop) artist in the U.S in instance Usher.--JForget 18:29, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment its a direct copyright violation from here.  T Rex  | talk  22:39, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Note, I've placed a copyvio on the article, but didn't tag it for speedy pending the result here. &mdash; Coren (talk) 00:25, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I'd be willing to rewrite using the copyvio as a source, if the closing admin is interested. Mind you, since this seems to be a weak keep (not considering the copyvio), it may be easier to delete outright. Flyguy649 talk contribs 04:06, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
