WP:BLP of a musician who self-releases his own albums on a self-owned record label, and whose only genuinely substantive or properly sourced indication of notability is owning a single jazz bar in a single city. This is not enough to get him over our inclusion rules for musicians, and every bar owner in existence doesn't get an automatic notability freebie either -- if he could actually be sourced over WP:GNG then that would be one thing, but one reference isn't enough to confer "notability because media coverage exists" on a person who doesn't pass any SNG.

 * Weeds is much more than that on the West Coast Canadian Jazz scene, and while the article doesn't currently reflect it, I believe there are enough sources to back this up. KEEP Bugcrusher (talk) 20:11, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
 * It's not enough to believe there are enough sources to get a person over WP:GNG. If the article's not claiming anything that would constitute an automatic pass of a subject-specific inclusion guideline like WP:NMUSIC, then it has to be explicitly shown that the sources to cover off an "include anyway because GNG" pass do exist; merely theorizing that better sources might exist does not cut it.

 * Delete at best as I had encountered but made no immediate attempts at deletion because I had found some websites that could be used, but at best it seems I have found nothing else actually better. SwisterTwister   talk  05:34, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
