 * Delete No indication that the songwriter, or the songs, are notable. We have no article about "Waves of Compassion", supposedly a well-known song written after the 2004 tsunami (no comment about that idea for a title).    Although we have lots of articles about musicians, my own belief is that the measure of a songwriter's notability would have to be whether the song itself had become memorable, not just whether it was picked up by a major artist or label.   Lots of songs are composed, and every once in awhile, a lyric embeds itself into memory; or the melody becomes so well known that it can be identified when played without the words.  In other words, very few songwriters, and very few poets, would make the cut.  Mandsford (talk) 12:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
