Johnny Prill

PROD was removed, so I am sending to to AfD. No real notability established. External sources is local newspapers about some organisation, not the person itself. Erzsébet Báthory(talk 20:58, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Hey, I've heard of this guy. They used to play him a lot on WKJC during the polka show (why country stations around here also play polka is beyond me). Even so, the sources don't cut it (one is a one-paragraph mention in Country Weekly; I have that issue, so I know it's trivial mention), and I couldn't find anything more substantial about him.

 * Keep I have also heard of Johnny Prill.  He has written songs for Bobby Vinton and he is the writer of that grandparents day song.  Our school just preformed that song for a assembly.  I found his wiki page to be informative.  I think it should be kept.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Theres whiskey in the jar o (talk • contribs) 03:22, 25 July 2009 (UTC)  — Theres whiskey in the jar o (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Keep He wrote the official song for a national holiday. That alone is worth staying in my opinion.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Machoman343 (talk • contribs) 03:34, 25 July 2009 (UTC)   — Machoman343 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * I have another comment after doing some research on Johnny Prill. I believe that his wikipedia page has just as much relevant information as other polka artists such as Eddie Blazonczyk, Walter Jagiello, or Walt Groller.  Thank you.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Machoman343 (talk • contribs) 03:50, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: Please that the two accounts above that said "keep" are single purpose accounts, created specifically by someone just to comment on this. 10 minutes apart from each other, too. Erzsébet Báthory(talk 11:15, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I am not a single purpose account. I do not know whiskey jar.  I have no ties to Johnny Prill nor do I care if his wikipedia page is deleted.  I was just voicing my opinion.  It seems there are plenty other polka artists that have wikipedia pages.   Johnny Prill's page has just as much relevant info.  Thank You. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Machoman343 (talk • contribs)

 * Keep I created the page for Johnny Prill and I do not see why it should be deleted. It contains significant information about a nationally known singer/songwriter.  He is known across the country and he has written the official song for a national holiday.  Anyone doing research on Polka Music would definately find his work on "America, This song's for You" very intersting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anang2000 (talk • contribs) 12:35, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete could be a speedy. AfD is now compromised by sockpuppet accounts. The Real Libs-speak politely 13:18, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * KeepI do not know what a sock puppet account is. I simply created an account and put up some information on Johnny Prill.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.103.225.66 (talk) 14:56, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * NoteThis was my first addition to wikipedia and this whole experience has been terrible. Delete the account if you want.  I will not be back.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.103.225.66 (talk) 15:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Disregarding the votes above by meat/sockpuppets, this article just doesn't say much towards his notability.  Triplestop  x3  18:19, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
