Phil Jones (musician)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

BLP of a musician that is stitched together from liner notes, tour notices and passing mentions. There does not appear to be in depth coverage of the subject in reliable independent sources so notability is not established. Redirecting to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers might be possible as it seems this is what he is best known for. Mccapra (talk) 03:54, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - The article lists 14 references - one of which is an interview with just Phil Jones in Rolling Stone Magazine. Hardly a "passing mention". Not only that, but he is clearly a well known and reputable musician having credits with Roy Orbison, Tom Petty and Del Shannon among a few. As anyone can see from the references, he gets more than a passing mention. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Glaaaastonbury88 (talk • contribs) 08:19, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * credits, interviews etc. aren’t sufficient to support a biography article. Are there three reliable independent sources that discuss him in depth? Mccapra (talk) 21:27, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, yes there are. The first 3 references on his page provide 3 reliable independent sources that discuss him in depth...  Glaaaastonbury88 (talk) 09:14, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Well that’s an interview with him, an extremely brief passing mention, and an offline source. Mccapra (talk) 19:05, 5 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. Lack of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the subject. The sources indicated above are either interviews or trivial mentions, and do not establish notability. -- Ashley yoursmile!  04:41, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

 * How long is this going to go on for- it is pretty clear that no one can prove it should be taken down. Cheers Glaaaastonbury88 (talk) 15:25, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
