Nearly all sources on this multi-named artist are WP:PRIMARY interviews or the subject's own websites; the only reliable secondary ones I can see are that an American writer called Pablo Lopez coined the term "pataphor" (possibly in 1994?), and that "Paul Avion & Par Avion" were listed as one of at least 32 up-and-coming unsigned bands by Spin magazine in 2009. (There is no reliable source that I can see which confirms that Pablo Lopez and Paul Avion are the same person.) Avion doesn't appear to meet the criteria of WP:MUSICBIO, with no nationally-charted albums or signings to major labels. McGeddon (talk) 17:30, 28 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete Immediately. Pablo Avion aka Pablo Lopez has never accomplished anything, and all those sources from small indie publications, SPIN, radio stations, the book quotation, and the like don't mean anything! And if you can't connect those two names, it must be wrong.
 * ALSO, no one visits "Fashion Week Online" -- regardless of whether it's mentioned in CNN, Lonely Planet, or Time Out NY! No one!!

 * Delete as searches found nothing better at all and the current article, while sourced, actually has nothing convincing for applicable notability, examining the list of sources shows nothing outstanding. SwisterTwister   talk  04:34, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep The SPIN mention, radio station mentions, and KSPC chart are notable. The pataphor entry is in an academic book. As far as we can see from his own websites, Pablo Avion and Pablo Lopez are the same person. Maybe it just needs an overhaul and rewrite as Pablo Lopez.Johnsonsons (talk) 19:10, 2 May 2016 (UTC) — Johnsonsons (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Comment - It's likely best noting the Keep votes are not suggesting how and when this can be improved, this all altogether best deleted for now. SwisterTwister   talk  04:57, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
