 * – ( View AfD View log )

Per discussions with the previous closing admin, and per WP:NPASR, I am re-nominating this article for deletion. The previous AfD resulted in no consensus - there was my !vote as nom, and a keep !vote by a single-purpose IP. My reasons for nominating last time was: "I do not believe being considered as a member of a notable band (without actually joining that band) meets WP:MUSICBIO, even if mentioned on mtv.com. The other band this person was a member of is not notable." Subsequent to the AfD closing, I tried to verify the IP's reasons for keep, and came ot the following opinions: a) the fact that "the musician is signed" is not a criterion for WP:MUSICBIO, and b) the fact that the person was a backup guitarist for this tour does not make him notable, especially as he recieved no significant mention in any of the reviews.

 * Delete This is an unreferenced BLP and the external links are to things like a defunct blog, a Wikipedia mirror, and a story calling him "unknown" that passes on a rumor that was false. I was unable to find any in-depth coverage in reliable sources that discuss this musician. Cullen328 (talk) 03:39, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete So he's famous for not being in a notable band? By that logic, I must be deserving of a Wikipedia article, since I'm not in the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Metallica or the Bee Gees. I'll start writing it now. Can't believe this had to be nommed twice... Yunshui (talk) 14:09, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
