This article is sourced entirely to 2 primary sources, and the google hits aren't very promising. In addition, an editor claiming to be the subject insists that the information is largely incorrect; an assertion that is difficult to dismiss without quality sources to check. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants  Tell me all about it.  13:26, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. 2 refs neither of which assert notability, the article appears mundane. Szzuk (talk) 19:31, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete LOL, When I first saw this I thought not only does he deserve an article, but he was pretty damn funny too. Then I realized the spelling was different (not Richard Pryor). Unlike Richard Pryor, this has no sources and doesn't clear GNG.--Rusf10 (talk) 05:18, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Don't feel bad. My first interaction with this article was when a person claiming to be the BLP in question asked for information to be changed. I had literally started to comment "RUN!! It's a zombie!!" before I noticed the spelling and checked the article. Luckily, I hadn't hit "Publish changes" yet. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants   Tell me all about it.  14:35, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment I've found some local news articles such as and there are mentions in news articles outside of the region such as Washington Post  and The News-Gazette / Champaign-Urbana  The stuff the editor wrote saying things were incorrect were mainly concerning his degrees at educational institutions. He still was a conductor for Atlanta, Emory, and LaGrange   AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 02:34, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
