Delete: looks to be a hoax and no verifiable assertion of notability. --Mkativerata 23:00, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep- for now... I see nothing on the talk page, and no explanation of how this 18 month or so old article is fake, and how it has existed within a music community without notice... can someone provide a better argument that it is "fake", ghits for eg, a discussion of it somewhere, anything? If no attempt has been made, this is premature.JJJ999 00:48, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Lubricated Goat. Comment:It took me less than five minutes to find a site on a group called the Dubrovniks, which the subject played for. In that article was this:"Brett Ford (drums; ex-Kryptonics, Lubricated Goat)". Let's do some research before we brand something a hoax.--Sethacus 01:14, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Understood, but the second paragraph of the article needs to be referenced or deleted. --203.129.46.76 01:17, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment If it's redirected, sourcing won't matter. There won't be an article. Only if it's merged or kept will that be a concern.--Sethacus 01:42, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I deleted the second paragraph, as per WP:BLP. Cogswobble talk 04:51, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete The subject does not appear to be notable apart from the bands he has played in. Being part of a notable group does not in itself make you notable.  (I'm not necessarily passing judgment on the notability of the bands, that's another discussion.) Brianlucas 23:28, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge into one of the related articles as the subject indeed has had connections with notable subjects of articles - outright delete is not that useful on such a issue - adequate research and appropriate connection with one of the bands he was associated with would make sense SatuSuro 05:35, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Brett Ford is an influential figure in the 1980s Sydney music scene; the article might not reflect the level of his influence but he is nevertheless a key figure in this scene and as such is deserving of his own separate article.--ollee 15:01, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
