Non-notable individual lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. Appears to fail WP:BIO.  ttonyb (talk) 06:58, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

References have been added in addition to credits and clients of this notable entertainment lawyer who individually has handled legal counsel for over 20 platinum records and 45 million units sold. He is currently at Shukat Arrow Hafer Weber & Herbsman, L.L.P., the largest music law firm in the country (who represent John Lennon's estate, and Bob Marley's estate.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moneycolizzi (talk • contribs) 09:16, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment Most of the article has just been removed as a copyright violation. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:49, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment VernoWhitney - No evidence of copyright violation listed in reference, as per guidelines. This appears to be a random deletion without written justification.  Using referenced sources, information has been added to prove notability.  Though there is a Music Law page, the wikipedia is sorely underpopulated with many of the biggest names in music law missing articles.

 * Comment – The article fails to provide adequate references to support notability.  Unfortunately, underpopulation of a particular type of article is not part of the criteria for inclusion into Wikipedia.   ttonyb  (talk) 17:21, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Notability is not inherited, and this guy is twice removed from the notable. Take out the WP:PUFF (He's a member of an NYSBA section? How notable he and 1600 other New Yorkers must be to have the $400 dues!) and the article is empty, and thus flunks WP:BIO. (Separately: written by a SPA, though that shouldn't count for anything.)
