 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article was previously soft deleted, with my nominating rationale as Best as I can tell, this bio fails WP:MUSICBIO. No charting albums or songs, no major music awards (only a minor regional award), and only routine press coverage. It was recently undeleted by request of an editor claiming to be the subject of the article, whose only other edits were getting themselves blocked for personal attacks. Based on that, I am renominating for deletion (on the same grounds of lack of notability) in hopes of more participation in the discussion. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 22:54, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: MUSICBIO has a fairly high bar to clear. This subject does not clear it, however much he may yearn to have a Wikipedia article.   Ravenswing      01:13, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

 * And which ones would you claim he does? He certainly doesn't meet #1.  He has never had a song or album hit a national chart.  He has never had a gold record.  He has never had reliable coverage of any international tour.  He's just released two albums, period, never mind multiple albums on a major label.  He has never been in a band with multiple notable musicians.  He has never won a Grammy or other major music award.  Etc etc etc.  0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0=0.

 * Delete. Setting aside the possible COI editing (including a handful of anonymous IP editors who haven't edited any other articles), this artiste does not meet a single one of the criteria listed at WP:NMUSICIAN. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 12:42, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment It appears that most of the cited coverage is actually for Mission Hill, of which the subject is a part. WP:INHERITED says that doesn't make the subject notable. However, the Billboard article seems focused on the subject. Does that aid WP:GNG claim? — Ad Meliora Talk∕Contribs 15:03, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
