Steve Cooke (musician)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

no real notability shown for this bio. he has worked with a bunch of people and there is a lot of name dropping but notability is not inherited. the awards are not major. lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. there is a some references provided but there is a lack of good ones. a mix of press releases and the awards own site. nothing satisfying wp:music. duffbeerforme (talk) 04:24, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Massive name-dropping and claims of second and third hand inherited notability. Minor, non-notable award won and a couple of nominations. Such awards are a dime a dozen.  No significant coverage in reliable sources.  He's probably capable of putting on a rocking show, and that's all good, but he's not notable.

 * Comment There's a bass player named Steve Cooke who is mentioned in passing in a few reliable sources. Only problem is that it's another guy.  Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  06:05, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

The awards are notable REAL awards recognized in Hollywood. There are links to the website. The musicians are REAL. Watch the videos and who he has and IS working with. The page is stating everything true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michelanglo (talk • contribs) 01:59, 4 October 2011 (UTC) Why shouldnt the people be mentioned he has worked with? I know him personally from England and this is all true. Yes, the awards are not Grammys, but so what? They are still awards! And they are real. Check out the website! The article states the facts, not fiction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiaroa (talk • contribs) 02:06, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
