Contested speedy. Failure of WP:BIO. The vast majority of the "sources" are self-created (myspace.com, autobiography on writing community, poems on postpoems.com "I want to tell you/of lovers/two who stood side by side/forever," etc). There is nothing to indicate the "underground following" from Missouri to France to which the article refers. Movingboxes (talk) 03:46, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Forgot to add, it is also a contested prod. The speedy and prod tags have been removed by SPAs, which may be evidence of the "underground following" the article talks about.  Or something. Movingboxes (talk) 03:49, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. I tried to find reliable sources for the subject 7 days ago and was unsuccessful so I tagged it with and  . Nothing to address these concerns has been forthcoming. In fact the tags were removed without addressing these concerns. If the numerous editors of this article can address these concerns in the next few days I may change my position but as is this appears to be an attempt to promote the subject.

I am working to adress the accuracy on this page, while it is abundant with links some information is inncorrect. The subject obviously has a following abroad, and has had success with netlabels, download rates, and reviews. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Souffrance (talk • contribs) 15:26, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Simply linking to places online where the subject's name is mentioned (as you have been doing so far) is not sufficient. You'll have to demonstrate that the subject has received non-trivial coverage from third-party sources per WP:BIO. Movingboxes (talk) 15:32, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Any suggestions on how one may clear the air on this matter?
 * Comment Find sources that are independent of the subject. Please look at WP:BIO for more information. Movingboxes (talk) 15:33, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

All sources have been edited. I must note that I have found several other sound artist pages that have there personal sites linked. I have taken her's off. I am begining to speculate about the reasons for such harsh editing... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Souffrance (talk • contribs) 19:42, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment The issue isn't the personal sites. The issue is that with this subject, there seems to be nothing else. Movingboxes (talk) 19:43, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete He may well be notable in some circles, but the onus is on people to verify this.-- Poetlister 11:42, 1 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Unfortunately, I see no notability of this person asserted. Give more third-party, mainstream sources (my personal preference is for ink-and-paper sources, like a newspaper or magazine) and it has a much better shot. --Midnightdreary (talk) 23:12, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
