Alvin Chea
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

The subject himself fails WP:ANYBIO, WP:GNG (significant coverage by multiple reliable sources), and most relevantly WP:MUSICBIO ("Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article"). The previous AfD discussion does not appear to have formed any consensus, though it was closed as "keep." The previous argument regarding WP:INHERIT is actually valid in this situation, unless coverage significantly about the subject individually could be found. At any rate, present guidelines and policies apply for this nomination. Given the WP:BLP-problematic content in the article history, I recommend deleting and then redirecting to Take 6.

 * Delete per the points JFHJr makes. There isn't enough info out there to support a separate article and what there is can easily go in the article for the band. MarnetteD | Talk 00:50, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * One thing brought up in the previous AfD was this search, which (for me) produces one single hit: 3VOOR12 is legit, but there is nothing mere than a mention ("Het repertoire wordt zesstemmig gebracht, waarbij vooral Alvin Chea erg opvalt met zijn ultiem lage stemgeluid") of his deep voice.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete. I found a fair number of references to Chea doing a Google archive news search and a Google book search. The latter is mostly issues of Ebony. In glancing at many of them (and some I can't see the whole article because you have to pay to do so), they all seem to be in the context of Take 6. In other words, they aren't about Chea as Chea but about Chea as one member of the band. That's not enough to justify a separate article.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
