Not quite notable. Grammy-nominated but apparently hasn't won. No objective evidence of notability. Frank |  talk  01:53, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep His song was #1 for 5 weeks. That's notability as per WP:NMUSIC. Gosox5555 (talk) 02:26, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you have a citation for that? According to our article on Dawson, he apparently produced an album by Daniel Powter, although even that is not sourced. Even so, it is not the same thing as "his song was #1" per WP:NMUSIC, which refers to musicians and ensembles having a charted song. I would also note that WP:NMUSIC refers to things which may indicate notability; it neither assures it by evidence of something on the list nor denies it by lack thereof. It is a guideline of generally accepted criteria. Frank  |  talk  19:46, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - having a #1 song if he were the singer would establish notability. However, he is the producer, and based on this article, it's not clear how much of the production is his.  In any case, I can find no reliable sources writing about him.  He is mentioned in passing in may articles but that is not significant coverage.  Being grammy nominated isn't enough.  I acn find no information about what he was nominated for. -- Whpq (talk) 16:36, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep Grammy nominated. Duffbeerforme (talk) 18:33, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry WP:ANYBIO says "has been often nominated", my mistake, missed the often. Duffbeerforme (talk) 19:36, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. NMUSIC does not apply because he is not a performing artist.--JohnnyB256 (talk) 19:37, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
