After editing the article, I'm not really finding corroborating material for WP:Notability (music) online. The Billboard Magazine write-up, per the article, was about Big City Records and the Nick D Album; no indication that Cheese was mentioned. Can anyone verify the coverage in Black Beat and Teen Machine? —Largo Plazo (talk) 21:13, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete The writing is non-notable per WP:AUTHOR, one book with no book reviews. The article asserts WP:GNG notability with these two sources: 1. cover of Teen Machine Magazine in 1988. Unable to verify. Here's what a different cover of Teen Machine Magazine looks like from 1988, so the cover image may have been one of many people on the cover (or not, hard to know). 2. three-page layout in Black Beat Magazine in 1988 (see image). Are these two sources alone enough to meet WP:GNG? Since his career was from the 1980s, I also searched about a dozen general and specialized music databases with archives of thousands of periodicals and his name does not appear anywhere. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 18:16, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
