Was de-prodded with the following rationale: "Removed proposed deletion. The article should not be deleted because the individuals credits of composing for some of the highest rated television series in the last two years are evident from IMDB and other websites."

However, searches turned up nothing on the engines to show that they pass WP:GNG, and I can find no evidence that they pass WP:NMUSIC. I understand he's accomplished, and he's worked on some notable items, but notability isn't transferred or inherited.  Onel 5969  TT me 21:25, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Under the 'Criteria for composers and lyricists' it state that Composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists, may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
 * Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition.
 * Has written musical theatre of some sort (includes musicals, operas, etc.) that was performed in a notable theatre that had a reasonable run as such things are judged in their particular situation and time.
 * Has had a work used as the basis for a later composition by a songwriter, composer or lyricist who meets the above criteria.
 * Has written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers.
 * Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter or lyricist that meets the above criteria.
 * Appears at reasonable length in standard reference books on his or her genre of music.

This individual has credit for writing or co-writing music for notable compositions as found in search engines from IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4970150/), www.JonasFriedman.com, www.Briankeanemusic.com, http://classdismissedmovie.com/about-the-film/the-team/ --Bearmee1 (talk) 00:47, 16 December 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. The question then is whether he has composed a significant amount of the music for the notable shows. Our article on the Music of The X-Files does not mention him.  DGG ( talk ) 01:42, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
