 * Delete Even the sources are primarily based on his mother's notability. WP:TOOSOON - David Gerard (talk) 17:11, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, so he's not automatically entitled to an article just because he has famous parents — but nothing claimed or sourced here gets him over WP:NMUSIC as having attained notability in his own right yet. A lot of the sources here just briefly mention his name in coverage of Cyndi rather than being about him — and the ones that are about him are a mix of unreliable sources (Perez Hilton's blog), non-substantive blurbs and reference-bombed repetitions of the exact same article in its original source and followup reprints in aggregators (see #10-12, which are all the same article in three different reprints, and thus not three distinct sources.) No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he actually passes NMUSIC for something, but nothing written or sourced here gets him an article today.

 * Delete per above. Consider snow. Not sure that anyone can really argue that this belongs. Timothy Joseph Wood  17:39, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
