 * The Gold record does not belong to Feldt, it is a record by Robyn S that was released in the early 1990s. The artist's own bio here states he didn't even start his career until 2013... Feldt just remixed a famous song twenty years after it came out... Usterday (talk) 18:57, 27 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - Fan not withstanding, let's wait to have an article until reliable sources mention him, He's not there yet. DreamGuy (talk) 19:17, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes MUSICBIO. He has a single on the UK chart which is tracked by Bilboard . Personally I think the notability criteria are too low and GNG should be controling for recent bands etc but we have what we have and he passes. J bh  Talk  22:13, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment The author contacted me to let me know that he/she has fixed the orphan and dead-end problems, so I removed these tags from the article. The number of references has also been increased to 18.--Gronk Oz (talk) 15:10, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep He passes WP:MUSICBIO on at least two criteria: "had a single or album on any country's national music chart" and "had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country". That record may be a re-working of an old work (albeit with new vocals and instrumentals), but his name is still the one shown on the credits.--Gronk Oz (talk) 15:27, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep This article is growing exponentially since being nominated with more added reliable sources. --MurderByDeadcopy"bang!" 19:26, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
