 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

BLP created and maintained by subject directly or by proxy. Was deleted as A7 in January 2014. Article was at AfD in June 2014 and was interestingly non-admin closed as Keep after only 1 re-listing based on the keep !vote of 1 editor whose was partly substantiated by self-published sources. Left is
 * One source is not about subject but briefly mentions him as a producer.
 * Two sources from 2006 mentions the non-notable band Lotus Lullaby subject performed in: one of these does not mention subject, the other is not about the band or the subject and only mentions the band and subject briefly.
 * One source is a short article about subject's music on the non-notable website Nerd Like You. Here everybody can submit an article if "you have a nerdy passion and you are able to string a fairly decent sentence together", and although the writer, Tom Hoover, is a regular and self-described "nerd and aspiring multimedia artist [who] enjoys watching bad movies and playing retro video games", nothing here gives the impression of a reliable source. The writer is not a journalist, and the site has no record of fact checking.
 * One source is a 11 minute interview done by WGTB, a student-run internet radio station at Georgetown University.
 * One source is a review of his 2014 record Vistas on the website Sputnik Music. Again much like Nerd Like You above, this is a community run site, and the reviewer is not a journalist.
 * The one reliable source used as a reference, Billboard, quotes subject regarding an incidence with Youtube and copyright, but is not about subject.

All in all we are a far cry from meeting WP:MUSBIO, and none of the above adds up to meeting WP:BASIC. Delete. -- Sam Sing! 12:45, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

 * I originally closed that 1st discussion as Keep as JT was interested in saving it so thought Meh why not, Looking back at it I'm surprised it was never taken to DRV!, These days my AFD closures are alot better than that thank god, Thanks for renominating :) - (I apologize for commenting on this whilst closed but felt I ought to explain the poor closure back then) – Davey 2010 Talk 23:42, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
