James Frey (winemaker)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:ARTIST--claims for notability as an artist more compelling than for those as a winemaker (which is to say he has no notability as a winemaker), but still fails. Valfontis (talk) 19:56, 28 April 2011 (UTC)


 * delete: Fails notability per WP:BIO since all of the sources are (probably) shallow mentions.  Even the external links barely mention him (zero or one instances of "Frey"), and are mostly about the winery. —EncMstr (talk) 16:56, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:BIO/WP:NOTE, etc. Aboutmovies (talk) 07:18, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Can only find trivial mentions of him in reliable sources. Qrsdogg (talk) 18:37, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge to Trisaetum Winery - there are sources, but most talk about the winery.  SilkTork  *YES! 20:26, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Trisaetum Winery per SilkTork - the sources provided mostly mention him in that context, and at this time this article is actually better sourced than the parent. Hence, leaving history intact to allow a merge and cleanup of the winery article is probably the best way forward. ~ mazca  talk 12:10, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Just a heads up to those !voting merge/redirect, I'll likely take the Trisaetum article to Afd as well. It's nothing personal, but although the article is sourced, that doesn't mean that the winery is notable. I did do some checking before prodding, and I'll do my due diligence before taking further action. Valfontis (talk) 14:20, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * P.S. Although it doesn't affect notability, I should note that both articles/adverts were created by SPAs. Valfontis (talk) 14:23, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
