WP:BLP of an artist, not reliably sourced as clearing our inclusion standards. Of the 13 footnotes here, seven are his own self-published website about himself, two more are the self-published websites of organizations he's directly affiliated with, one is a blog and one is just a directory of podcasts that completely fails to actually mention his name at all in relation to any of their content -- which means 11 of the 13 footnotes are doing absolutely nothing to support his notability. And the just two footnotes that are actually real media are both to limited-circulation local media within the region where he lives, which means they're not enough to get him over GNG all by themselves if they're the only real media sources that can be shown.

 * Weak Delete - I have found two more sources for the article including Oakland North and Oakland Magazine, which makes a total of four reliable, independent, and in-depth sources. WP:RS does not specify that sources must be national or international, so I believe it just barely passes the sources requirements for WP:GNG. Having said that, it may still fail WP:BIO since he does not appear to be exceptionally notable.IphisOfCrete (talk) 23:50, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
