Mark Tucker (musician) and Tetrapod Spools
proposed deletion of small walled garden of this artist and his defunct indie/underground record label, whose best-known release was the subject's own Batstew (200 copies released). The artist has released the album commercially on CD in 1996 on destijl records, but there is no evidenc he passes WP:MUS (no sign of any awards, gold discs, tours, or reviews) Ohconfucius 05:52, 22 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Support of deletion and comment... Why didn't you WP:PROD this? The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 21:37, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The article on the musician cites 5 sources and states that xe has released 3 albums, on a record label that the discography linked from the article on the record label indicates isn't just a vanity label for that artist alone. The linked-to site also tells us that the musician has been the subjects of articles in the San Diego Reader.  This appears to satisfy the WP:MUSIC criteria.  Keep.

 * Keep: As a CD was released 10 years ago by a company that still has its web site and thus clearly survived, and that CD was a re-release of a much earlier album which is not done without good reason by a company that likes to survive. Should one here risk-free pretend to be a better expert? It also indicates that the music was not all too contemporary. — SomeHuman 3 Oct2006 19:57 (UTC)

 * delete allmusic.com has a very weak entry on a guy named Mark Tucker but it does NOT appear to be this Mark Tucker. Even if it were, his entire entry is a single album discography of an album with no review or track list.  The album is from 2004, and is not one of the identifying albums listed in the article, which makes me think its a different guy anyways.  There is no evidence that he is a notable recording artist.  --Jayron32 23:23, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
