 * Delete no reliable sources, no proof of notability. The musician has worked with a lot of other musicians, yes, but what has he done? -Nard 12:48, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep I am not convinced that this article does'nt meet WP:BIO guidelines and should be retained.As his career expands the article will, without a doubt, improve. There are alot of refs that show notability. He has an IMDB for the movie "Bikini Island" that shows clearly a song called Shot Down"written and featured in that major movie release. He also wrote and has credits, including a song called My Sin, for the Divine Horsemen records listed. This musician is obviously published and shows notability.He also has a major indie release coming out in november of this year on HepCat Records( the same label as The Stray Cats and Britney Spears) with his band The D.I.'s produced by Chuck Reed of Interscope Records and Billy Zoom of X. He also has records on several labels currently selling the records he's on listed and accessible from the wiki site. There is no way this is'nt viable.(75.22.70.179 (talk) 08:00, 14 September 2008 (UTC))
 * Delete fails WP:MUSIC. No sources seem to support the notability claims. Even the IMDB source is a editable FAQ question so it can not be verified.  Gtstricky Talk or C 16:52, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Note Matt Lee has album credit and contractual credit for co-writing and arranging the entire Divine Horsemen record Devil's River. He did the same for the D.I.'s. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.231.71.13 (talk) 16:57, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * note If you look at this file at wikimedia commons, this image shows the inside liner notes and credits for Devil' river, The divine Horsemen record. It includes Matt Lee's name and publishing credit for his and all other songs on the list under so and so/D. horsemen because the publishing was split for their contributions among the band.(69.231.71.13 (talk) 20:36, 15 September 2008 (UTC))
 * Strong Keep  He seems to have posted absolute proof that he's published with album credit alright.(69.231.71.13 (talk) 20:56, 15 September 2008 (UTC))
 * keep, looks like there's some notability here. (Jayzee69 (talk) 18:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)) — Jayzee69 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
