Part of a notable band, (R5 (band)), yet no indication of individual notability, therefore I'm going to say that he fails WP:MUSICBIO. G S Palmer (talk) 16:59, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Clearly notable as part of a notable band. More information on individual notability will come to light as the article matures.68.144.172.8 (talk) 18:41, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Redirect (no merge) to R5 (band). Being part of a notable band isn't enough to meet the criteria at WP:MUSICBIO (being a member of multiple notable bands would meet #6, but he isn't). WP:MUSICBIO goes on to say specifically "Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases." The filmography consists only of cameos and small parts on TV, which doesn't meet WP:ENT, so that doesn't count; that's also the only information in this article that isn't in the R5 article, so no need for a merge. &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 04:06, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
