John Jones Hill

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable musician per WP:MUSICBIO and WP:SIGCOV. No coverage.  scope_creep Talk  07:48, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. The Grammy nomination demonstrates a degree of notability per WP:MUSICBIO criterion 8, but the guidelines make it clear that such a nomination only means that a nominee may be notable. The fact that he was the producer rather than the album's named artist, combined with the absence of any other significant coverage, add up to a lack of notability. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 08:27, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment Okay, this one is a real puzzler. The only decent source, The Houston Chronicle, shows a picture of this person and identifies him as John Hill, a Houston Native. The other sources--which are junk, but I checked some social media links--are for an entirely different person based in Chicago who goes by the brand TeamJohnHill. Both claim the same accomplishment. Something fishy is going on. As for the Grammy, I agree any old grammy nomination--and many are conferred to the point of being ridiculous--should not automatically merit a pass. However, John Hill, which ever of these two people it really is, was nominated for producer of the year, a pretty hefty accomplishment. My suspicion is the self-promoting Chicago John Hill ("TeamJohnHill") is a fabulist, claiming an accomplishment by someone with his same name. But i could be wrong. it's worth investigating. Or maybe it's worth blowing up this article and starting over with better sources. ShelbyMarion (talk) 20:39, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - Like Shelby above, I am also a bit confused on the connection between John Jones Hill and TeamJohnHill. The latter has the Grammy nomination as one member of a production team, and a few other minor accomplishments, so it would make more sense for this article be called TeamJohnHill. In any case, the Grammy nomination may help with notability, but like the other voters above I will conclude that much more is needed. This article may also be an attempted promotion for the guy's management business and his tiny stable of hot singers. ––  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 01:41, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
