Ineligible for WP:PROD. Redirection has been contested by an IP address. As far as I can tell no WP:CSD criteria apply. So, article has 1 reference which is primary by nature of it being an interview and the link is dead. Looking for sourcing for a WP:BEFORE is a nightmare due to the name being shared with Eric Griffin (boxer). Narrowing results nets me nothing. I've tried regular Google, Google news, news archive, and the Wikipedia Library - all without success. As such Eric Griffin inherently fails WP:GNG. — Sirdog (talk) 06:15, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Murderdolls, As per nom, finding sources for this individual is a nightmare, but I do believe there are some sources if we look deeper, I found this, this, and this, which appears to be nothing but passing mentions. It seems like the subject is not notable outside of their affiliation with their former band.  dxneo  (talk) 12:32, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete for what? His page was fine before a certain person decided to keep editing it by adding irrelevant information as related to this artist’s personal life on behalf of an old girlfriend. This page is for a legitimate musician who has toured all over the world as part of several notable bands that have their own pages: Murderdolls, Wednesday 13, Genitorturers, Davey Suicide, Pretty Boy Floyd and he toured for 1.5 years with Faster Pussycat. He is an endorsed artist with Dean Guitars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ButchFinger (talk • contribs) 09:42, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I do believe that they are somehow notable, but your word alone is just not enough, touring the world does not equate to notability as Slim Jxmmi (one half of Rae Sremmurd) has toured the world and even made it here in South Africa but he's still considered non-not able for some reason. Please provide sources.  dxneo  (talk) 19:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, i actually think this guy is somewhat notable --FMSky (talk) 22:07, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello FMSky, so you are basing your vote on "I think"? Would you please provide sources.  dxneo  (talk) 19:04, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Hes probably notable per WP:BAND for having having been a "musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles" -- FMSky (talk) 22:51, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * FMSky, which WP:MUSICBIO are you talking about cause it says "Note that regardless of what notability criterion is being claimed, the claim must be properly verified by reliable sources...", RS illustrating SIGCOV to satisfy GNG must still be provided regardless.  dxneo  (talk) 00:05, 26 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Murderdolls: BLP, Fails GNG and NBIO. Sources in article and BEFORE found nothing with WP:SIGCOV from WP:IS WP:RS addressing the subject directly and indepth. BLPs require strong sourcing. I see nothing properly sourced for a merge.  // Timothy :: talk  12:47, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
