Ernst-Wiggo Sandbakk

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article is about a non-notable drummer, who fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG, due to lack of coverage in reliable sources independent of subject. PROD was contested by the author without giving a reason. Mentoz86 (talk) 01:45, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

 * How come Ernst-Wiggo Sandbakk is a "non-notable drummer", who fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG, due to "lack of coverage in reliable sources independent of subject"? Knuand (talk) 12:58, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

 * You know, Knuand, in English Wikipedia there are notability guidelines, and I can't find any notability guideline that Sandbakk passes. Because he don't appear to satisfy any of the 12 criteria in WP:MUSICBIO and also fails the general notability guideline. --Mentoz86 (talk) 01:50, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep He's had an uncontested page on the Norwegian Wikipedia since 2006. Member of one notable band (Oofotr), but has also performed on multiple other albums outside that group, so a merge to that group's article would not be sufficient. Bondegezou (talk) 21:55, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
 * When I nominated this for deletion, Sandbakk was one of two "notable" members of that band. Since then the third member of the band has also gotten an article, but I don't think that any of those musicians (except Stubø) passes any notability guideline if you disregard the exsistence of the other articles, which means that the band is not notable either.

 * Delete: the sources cited in the article are either 1) commercial websites, 2) unreliable sources or 3) simple listings of performances and tracks. None of this is significant coverage under WP:GNG or the other guidelines. I also looked through news sites and did a google search, but wasn't able to turn up anything significant. The fact that he's been on the Norwegian wiki isn't enough in itself to show notability here, per WP:OSE. --Batard0 (talk) 13:16, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
