Richard Kimball (pianist / composer)

Fails the notability criteria for WP:NMG and WP:BLP for a lack of significant coverage in independent reliable sources. (A small community newspaper and a promotional blurb from a non-notable music contest at a local music school do not meet RS coverage standards.) Music CDs are self-published through CD Baby. Awards are 1) a student award while at Julliard and 2) a citizen's award from a non-notable local community group.) I have been unable to find any significant demonstration of notability. — Cactus Writer (talk) 15:47, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as I reviewed there and I simply see nothing better. SwisterTwister   talk  06:13, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. On the one hand, this is subject to CSD G5 as creator was a sockpuppet. See here. On the other, it might be good to reach a decision on the merits since this is already open and would subject this to CSD G4 upon any further creation that did not address the deletion basis. As to the merits, I see very little an article could be based upon but passing mention when searching Google Books (though there's lots of apparent false-positives to sort through, despite a targeted search).--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 22:57, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - per nom's excellent summary. Fuhghettaboutit brings up very salient points as well. Searches turned up nothing to show they pass WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC.  Onel 5969  TT me 17:40, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
