Joshua David Raggatt

Spam for a non-notable musician. No significant coverage in reliable sources, could possibly exist as a redirect to "Nato" (original band which may have some claims to notability). TN X Man 18:27, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Note. J.D BEATZ was a duplicate of this article. I've redirected it to Joshua David Raggatt, and if that article is deleted then it should go too. EALacey (talk) 18:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. He doesn't seem to meet any of the criteria at Notability (music), and I can't find any news coverage (for "Joshua David Raggatt", "Joshua Raggatt", "Josh Raggatt", "J D Beatz", "JD Beatz") apart from the cited Cornish Guardian article. The awards won by the subject and his band apparently aren't notable enough to have their own WP articles. EALacey (talk) 18:43, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete not even remotely close to passing WP:MUSIC. Possibly a speedy-delete candidate.  Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  20:44, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. None of the many sources cited seem to be reliable sources. -- KenWalker | Talk 04:32, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Criteria for musicians and ensembles

4. Has received non-trivial coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.(2 full U.K tours - over 300 shows)

9. Has won or placed in a major music competition. (Cornish Music Award winner Twice and Tennessee Knocdown Award nominee once.)

11. Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network. (Repeated plays on Radio 1 and MTV.)

12. Has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network. (Half hour interview with Juice FM, repeated plays on Radio 1 and MTV.)

Criteria for composers and lyricists

1. Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition.(Nato album and HipHop albums)

4. Has written a song or composition which has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers. (Cornish Music Award Winner Twice and Knocdown Award nominee once.)

Others

4. Has composed a number of melodies, tunes or standards used in a notable genre, or tradition or school within a notable genre. (Nato Album released throughout the U.K and Hip Hop albums from all across America.)

Resources

The Notability (music) section states that a good music resource is ALLMUSIC.COM, here is a link to the album which Joshua David Raggatt made and it is listed on that website - http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:gnfqxz95ldfe —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tristanvienne (talk • contribs) 04:13, 21 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. Fails WP:MUSIC. His band Nato is barely notable, but he is not notable at all. Blackjays1 (talk) 07:04, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
