Article about composer who as a team won an Emmy in 1992. After searching I could find no other sources to support notability except for a confirmation of the Emmy win. Understanding this win was in 1992 and may make it difficult to find online sources to support an article on this topic. At this point this article fails WP:GNG and the single Emmy win with no other coverage I believe makes it fail WP:COMPOSER as well. - McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 21:28, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep - pretty clearly meets WP:COMPOSER point 4, "Has written a composition which has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers.". Has a lengthy resume' at http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0811749/ and Google shows that he pops up in the news every now and then (e.g. http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6436604/get-on-up-oscar-bid-sound-editing-process-james-brown-film ), albeit usually in specialised reporting on movies.

 * Keep. Meets Criteria #1 of WP:ENTERTAINER His very prolific career as a music editor and composer includes 126 film and TV credits, 32 soundtrack credits, and 20 composer credits. He has also been nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards (winning once), and has also won two Golden Reel Awards, including winning the Golden Reel for Best Sound Editing in Feature Film for the 2004 Adademy Award winning film Ray, and again for the 2014 film Get on Up.

 * Keep Winning an EMMY is enough notability to pass WP:ENTERTAINER. Joseph2302 (talk) 18:19, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
