David Carswell

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly sourced as passing WP:NMUSIC. As written, this literally just states that he exists, sources his existence to the self-published website of his own record studio rather than any evidence of third-party media coverage about his work, and then just lists a bunch of production credits. As always, simply having credits to list is not an automatic inclusion freebie for a musician in and of itself — but while I get a fair number of glancing namechecks of his existence as a producer or a band member (as well as irrelevant hits for unrelated other David Carswells) on a ProQuest search, I'm just not really finding any WP:GNG-worthy sources that are about him in any non-trivial sense, nor am I finding any indication of the kind of notability-clinching awards (Juno, Grammy, etc.) that it would take to override GNG. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have better sourcing than I've been able to find. Bearcat (talk) 20:03, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete Sources do not support that the individual is independently notable from the bands. MrsSnoozyTurtle 04:18, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
