Miles Holmwood

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unreferenced and aparrently autobiographical article about a member of Stereos. WP:MUSIC states that "members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles" but does allow exceptions to this when "they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article.". I do not believe the individual notability is met. The article shows The Artist Life as a associated act, but the association is not disclosed; he certainly does not appear on the page for that act so he was presumably not a member of that band. None of the other associated acts are notable. The article also states that he was a boxer and won 12 Golden Glove championships but the subject does not appear in List of US national Golden Gloves champions. This champtionships has many regional groups so if there were any wins they were at a local level and - coupled with being amateur rather than professional - are again non-notable.

 * Comment. If the Golden Gloves thing can be sourced, that would be sufficient to indicate some notability, at least to me. The music acts add to that. But again, we need to get sourcing, which may be problematic if there are conflicting reports as you suggest. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 15:12, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete and fold content that can be referenced into his band Stereos. When I Googled "Miles Holmwood" and Golden Glove, almost everything that came up was Wikipedia related, and nothing was a reliable, independent source. Jim Heaphy (talk) 04:24, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
