Paul Godfrey (record producer)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Previous AfD under a different heading (see here) decided on a redirect. AfC was declined numerous times after which the editor moved the article to the mainspace himself. No clear indication of notability outside of the band. Redirect as per the previous AfD. Karst (talk) 13:03, 16 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep AfC was declined due to referencing issues such as using Discogs and other Wiki articles as references. This has been resolved. The subject is notable for his influence in the DJ and production community. I believe he warrants a seperate page from Morcheeba due to work with other notable musicians and appearences on notable television programmes Samfov (talk) 12:27, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Note the significant wording re: notability criteria: "...musicians or ensembles may be notable..." To meet any one of the criteria is not an automatic qualifier for a wikipedia article. The merit of references need to be assessed. What I'm seeing here is, yes, this subject has a separate career outside Morcheeba, but is lacking in proof that it is significant enough to merit independent notability. Listings of credits, name checks, and asserting notability by association are not enough. If this subject is indeed an influential person in the DJ and production community there needs to be a significant number of independent, third party articles that state as much, rather than the usual fluffy music web/blogs. What we're left with here is the flawed argument that a subject is worthy for existence. ShelbyMarion (talk) 15:50, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Only reliable source cited is AllMusic, but no dedicated article. The search tools produce no ref except the article in question. Fails notability, ergo de-lete. Tapered (talk) 01:06, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
