Tom Hess (guitarist) ‎
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Non notable musician. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Has been a member of multiple bands but only one is notable and he was only a temporary hired member, not good enough for nmusic. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:40, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians and Illinois.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 12:50, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia Library search yields several guitar-related articles written by Tom Hess himself for Muse's News, a songwriting newsletter. A Google search turns up lots of discussion about him as a guitar teacher, but mostly in online forums and blogs. No significant coverage found in independent reliable sources demonstrating notability per WP:BASIC or WP:NMUSIC, let alone WP:GNG. Cielquiparle (talk) 22:54, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
