Steven Stanley

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A music mixer engineer. Dubious notability. What next: wikipedia articles about groupies? `'Míkka 22:50, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Passes WP:MUSIC Criteria for musicians and ensembles 6.: Was a member of Tom Tom Club, and Criteria for composers and lyricists 1.: for a co-writing credit for the 1995 #1 hit "Fantasy" by Mariah Carey.  dissolve talk  00:03, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * He is not musician, composer or lyricist. He is technician. With this level of participation we must have articles for each foreman who built Empire State Building. `'Míkka 01:14, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Well that's one opinion, surely you have reliable sources to back it up?  dissolve talk  01:34, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I base my opinion on the article. It is not my blooming business to do anything else during AfD. It is your job to fix the article using WP:RS if you want to keep it. It is a ridiculous demand to supply WP:RS that a person is a nobody. `'Míkka 01:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * It's true the article should do a better job of asserting notability. But a reasonable and responsible nominator won't just decide that every sloppy article deserves a trip to the chopping block. If that were the case, there would be no purpose for importance or unreferenced (for two examples). --Dhartung | Talk 02:58, 17 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep per dissolve. Nen  yedi  • (Deeds•Talk) 02:05, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as a search of Google Books indicates Stanley was somewhat influential within reggae. --Dhartung | Talk 02:58, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
