 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Local musician of barely asserted notability who doesn't appear to have any RS coverage. Author believes MUSICBIO should be altered to allow for inclusion. A7 declined by another admin. Jclemens (talk) 18:11, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:MUSICBIO in every way. The article's subject itself isn't mentioned in either ref, none of his songs have charted, no certifications, awards, or anything.   Acro  X   18:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete . This artist (and his debut recording) represents a fusion of two genres of experimental music that is novel and noteworthy. Experimental artists and art forms (including music) are not well represented in notability guidelines such as WP:MUSICBIO, because they are designed for popular media. The "Other" section of WP:MUSICBIO is insufficient, and I plan to start a dialogue on this subject. However, that will require more time and thought. In the meantime, I ask that the Ronzilla page remain intact. The "rules of engagement" for experimental artists/media are significantly different from popular artists/media, and I recommend leniency on this notability issue. - Shichikokuyama (talk) 19:36, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails the basic tenets that everything in Wikipedia must be verifiable through independent reliable sources and that notability is established by having this coverage. Nuttah (talk) 19:44, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, perhaps Delete. I'm new to Wikipedia, so bare with me. I just discovered No original research, which clarifies my misunderstanding about the role of Wikipedia. My point with the Ronzilla article was to raise attention about a subject that is not well documented elsewhere. - Shichikokuyama (talk) 20:10, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
