Bill Lowrey (musician)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Tagged for notability for a decade. Looks like a local musician who gets occasional local media coverage, mainly for being a member of long-standing local bands. No evidence that he meets WP:MUSICBIO. EddieHugh (talk) 21:01, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete: Searches find sporadic mentions but not the level of coverage needed to demonstrate notability. The subject is mentioned in the Peninsula Banjo Band article (itself a poorly-referenced article), so a redirect there could be a possibility. AllyD (talk) 08:56, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Our sourcing is just one list of performers at one music festival. Such sources are not generally considered fully indepdent of the subject, they basically are inherently promotional in nature. So we have 0 religble secondary sources that are fully indepdent. We are not even close to the minimum of multiple indepdent relible secondary sources that give indepth coverage. That is just GNG, music bio guidelines demand more and are even less met.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:59, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: Coverage is weak and not pass general notability guidelines. TheDreamBoat (talk) 11:48, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
