John Farnsworth (musician)

One album as a leader, a few as a sideman. Not enough sources exist to write an article of substance. Questionable notability. Vmavanti (talk) 18:47, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - Unfortunately, sidemen generally don't get the recognition that they often deserve. There's nothing that we can really do on Wikipedia to remedy that. Our guidelines are based on notability, and Fransworth in particular doesn't appear to cross the line. We don't have the reliable source coverage that we need to build a proper page, and so deletion seems to be the right call. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 21:41, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:MUSICBIO. I'm sorry but musicians are supposed to collaborate. That doesn't make them notable. Bearian (talk) 02:02, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
