Milton Hallman

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Piano professor (emeritus) at Louisiana State University, which would normally be a good sign of passing WP:PROF, but there are only two claims to notability in the article (and none others found online): a CD of music of Dohnányi (on Centaur records, which is a good label, but only 77 library holdings) and a book Facing the Music with only 9 library holdings. I found an article in the Journal of the American Liszt society by him (search without the "H.") and there may have been a review in Fanfare (I can't access to know if it's a "Discs received" or a review). It doesn't look like a Musician or WP:PROF pass. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 17:52, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as my searches simply found nothing better than a few links here and there at Books and browsers, nothing else. It's interesting to note this hardly changed since starting. Notifying tagger and also, who I know is not expertly familiar with music, but he may still have some professors insight especially after what he said after the 1st PROD in August 2007.

 * I agree with 's decline of the PROD; probably 9 times out of 10, someone with this title at this level of the institution will be notable enough to at least warrant an AfD, but this seems to be the exception. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 04:37, 19 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete Not notable under WP:NMUSIC for one recording, and the book is in only a few libraries according to worldcat; no significant publications; Louisiana State lists him as retired faculty; I can't find a website.  DGG ( talk ) 22:27, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
