Presently almost unsourced. Couldn't find even trivial mention in the web, likely fails WP:BIO. Brandmeistertalk  21:03, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

I was not given the chance to add the reffernece list!

For notable publications by the artist first see, Suite: The Humber Bridge - can be found whaen typed into bing He is listed as David J Newstone, on that record,. As i stated i did not get the chance to list all other records, for example, Old Faithful, come on you 'ull etc.

it seems no effort was put into the internet search before the banner went up!

The page is on a musician local to Yorkshire and the humber, who has had hits with songs,like old faithful. He is well known in the hull area. And has worked with notable stars. After an interview with this indervidual i decided to add him to wiki as i could not find him listed. I know he may not be known to people outside of yorkshire but this does not mean that he is not woth listing. While i am starting the page there are others who wish to maintain it. Please state why you feel this person is not worth listing as many others he has worked with are on wiki. Balyputalk

 * Delete I'm all for articles that show potential being given the chance to grow into great articles, I just don't think there's enough material here to add onto it. I googled David Newstone and didn't find anything standout in the first 3 pages. If the article had more to go on maybe, but as is I don't even know what the guy looks like to possibly try and add more. Bryce Carmony (talk) 12:19, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Keep it says there is more to be added including images and refs but it is stated that there is no point if it is being deleted. There are many individuals on wiki who are hard to find on the web. I followed the instruction on the humber bridge info and found this person, he wrote and composed both the rock and orchestral pieces. I feel people like this seem to be forgotten to easy. Give the guy a chance to build the page before jumping to deletion.

Suggestion It appears that this article was created directly in article space, rather than in a users sandbox or as a draft or via AFC Balypu is complaining "I was not given the chance to add the reffernece(sic) list" and 109.155.97.173 states "it says there is more to be added including images and refs but it is stated that there is no point if it is being deleted" Suggest article is moved to draft, or users sandbox, where they can add the relevant information, rather than rushing to add this now, or not bothering if it is going to be deleted. - Arjayay (talk) 19:07, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Note I was in the process of cutting and pasting from a word doc, and within 2 min the bannar for SD went up, so i stopped working on it.Balyputalk  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
