This prolific movie music composer is borderline IMO. He gets a couple of pages in The Encyclopedia of Film Composers, but a lot of his work is uncredited, even at the end of his career, and all or nearly all for low-budget B movies. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:44, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep as he is included in the Encyclopedia of Film Composers and the written work referenced in the article, seems to pass WP:BASIC Atlantic306 (talk) 18:04, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Has a resume and is credited. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 13:28, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Reply. Everyone on IMDb has a resume and is credited. What has he done to satisfy WP:ARTIST? Clarityfiend (talk) 09:32, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
 * You are right that IMDb is not a reliable indicator of notability. Why, then, do you cite it in support of this nomination? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:08, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
 * To show that most of his work is uncredited throughout his career. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:27, 21 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep per nom. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 18:33, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Just in case the point I am making is unclear, I mean that the nominator stated a clear reason for keeping, i.e. that the subject has an entry in a print encyclopedia from a major academic publisher. The point of our notability guidelines is that we follow such reliable sources rather than our personal opinions about importance. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:08, 10 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep - Has a significant number of released works . Star Islington (talk) 15:12, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: While there are four keeps, much of the justification is very weak. Additional input is needed. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 05:19, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as the Keep votes are noticeably still questionable with there still being no convincing signs to improve this to a independently notable level, my searches and examinations have found nothing better too. Delete as a result of all of this. SwisterTwister   talk  20:28, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, does not pass WP:ARTIST or WP:GNG. Tom29739 [ talk ] 20:37, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree with 's rationale: a long deceased person who gets substantial (multipage) coverage in a bona fide encyclopedia on a notable topic like film music belongs in our encyclopedia as well. --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:53, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * In one book. What about GNG's "multiple sources are generally expected"? Clarityfiend (talk) 02:24, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
