 * Keep Many Google News hits. Passes MUSICBIO #2. WP:TNT though, by all means. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 21:32, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Could you link to a significant biography in a secondary source? Thank you.  Magnolia677 (talk) 21:43, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
 * [[|MSwritersandmusicians MSwritersandmusicians]]. Also, all of the songs he wrote are blue linked. Edit: Also, he is a songwriter, not a musician, and slots under WP:COMPOSER and passes 1,3, and possibly 4. I don't know enough about country to know what awards his songs have or haven't won, but they have slotted single digits in the Billboard Country charts, which I hear is big stuff. He is also mentioned in each of those songs on the Wiki page as a writer/co-writer which would make him notable.  L3X1 My Complaint Desk 02:52, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * You're ready to "TNT through", but have only managed to find one biography written as part of a Starkville High School class project. Magnolia677 (talk) 05:10, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * That class project yields a wealth of information about the BLP subject. So far I have restructured the article to resemble an actual Wikipedia page, and will probably add more facts throughout this next week. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 16:34, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * The back of a cereal box is informative too, but I would not use it to source a Wikipedia article. Please take a moment to read WP:SCHOLARSHIP.  Magnolia677 (talk) 17:25, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * We're not talking about cereal. SCHOLARSHIP is not applicable here. If you read the source, you will se it also contains an interview with the subject. If there is a difference between this "high shcool project" and what any other RS cranks out, please show me. If you want to debate the credibilty of the source, hold an RfC, not a AfD.

 * Please note that I nominated this article for deletion because I was "unable to locate secondary sources to support notability". An interview is not a secondary source, per WP:GNG.  Magnolia677 (talk) 18:38, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I will note that, and I will also note that subject is notable, and you have not demonstrated his lack of Notability. I believe in ATA it says that a lack of sources does not indicate lack of notability.L3X1 My Complaint Desk 18:49, 12 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep – significant coverage in the Chicago Tribune here, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and the Nashville Banner. Unfortunately there do not appear to be online versions of the latter two, but they are similar to the Tribune article, and I've added citations to the article.
