Long term autobio/unreferenced BLP. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources. The-Pope (talk) 06:34, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I can't find any sources to pass WP:GNG searching for his work in music or art. Nothing suggests notability via WP:BIO. Given that he was making music in the early 90s some sources could well be offline and I would reconsider if this proves to be the case, but please notify me as I might not be watching this page.

 * Wear is about to have an exhibition, and an accompanying on-line magazine article due to be published shortly. In addition to this, Wear's new album is currently in production. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andywear (talk • contribs) 04:10, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete cannot find any Australian coverage for this Andy Wear. . LibStar (talk) 02:07, 29 November 2010 (UTC)


 * What about these? Surely a National Library archive and a State operated gallery listing are sufficient and valid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andywear (talk • contribs) 06:05, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid they are not sufficent; what we're looking for is significant coverage in reliable sources independant of the subject. -- Lear's Fool 06:33, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Trove returns nothing other than a library record for one book, and the lack of anything meeting the coverage requirements of the general notability guideline suggests that this individual is comfortably not notable. -- Lear's Fool 06:33, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment given edits, WP:AUTOBIO and WP:COI also apply here. LibStar (talk) 06:48, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find sufficient coverage in reliable, third-party sources to establish that this subject merits a standalone article. Additionally, the subject of this article should follow Conflict of interest and avoid participating in this deletion discussion. -- Rrburke (talk) 17:06, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
