Can't find any coverage for this person. Prod was removed by an IP but no reliable sources have been found. Jafeluv (talk) 22:12, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Delete doesn't look particularly notable. PatGallacher (talk) 22:27, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Searches in music sources have turned up nothing to demonstrate notability and the article has been flagged for a few weeks without any such evidence being added. AllyD (talk) 08:24, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Before commenting or discussing matters at AfD, I conduct online searches, and found lots of possible sources at Google, Yahoo music, and Bing. Rescue, please. Bearian (talk) 21:20, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Great! If you find a reliable one, feel free to add it to the article. Jafeluv (talk) 21:35, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Found some news mention of him.  And many more results that appear to be him.  Got a picture of him in some articles.  He is part of an award winning band it seems.   D r e a m Focus  01:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Um, the photo from Watertown Daily Times is of a Clayton Bellamy from an award-winning Canadian band? Beyond that, I'm unconvinced that the searches are not picking up multiple musicians of the same name in different places. But the Virginian Pilot reference is clearly the article subject, leaving the question of whether it is sufficient to establish notability? AllyD (talk) 07:08, 12 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Ally, I honestly do not know, but we're trying to work on this one. Thanks. Bearian (talk) 20:08, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
 * There's a picture of the Virginia-based Chris Bellamy of this article at christopherbellamy.com (and the page text is more or less the same as on the Wikipedia article); he's not the same person as the Carolina/Florida-based guitarist/fisherman who has the domain chrisbellamy.com (compare the pictures). The latter has recorded several CDs (hence the Yahoo music page - which I think should therefore be de-referenced from the Wikipedia page), but I see nothing to suggest that the subject of the page has ever recorded?

 * I've removed the Yahoo link, since it's clearly a different person. Jafeluv (talk) 22:08, 12 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete The only source found so far seems to be the Virginia Pilot article, and that is not enough to suggest neither importance (much less notability) nor verifiability. Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 13:51, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per Pax:Vobiscum. Clearly there is insufficient coverage here to form the basis of a proper article. The keep! votes seem to be based on mistaken views of the sources. --Mkativerata (talk) 20:42, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
