Drummer who fails WP:MUSIC and WP:NOTABILITY. Although he has played in notable bands, notability is not inherited. Claritas (talk) 20:29, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

 Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 02:08, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep if sources are added- Meets WP:MUSIC criteria 6 "Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles." As a member of both Godhead and Bullets and Octane, he would be notable under this criteria. That said, the article needs sourcing to prove this before it can be kept.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep per WP:MUSICBIO criterion #6. I've added citations to news articles that confirm he has been a drummer for multiple notable bands; sources note his work with The Vandals too. With some more work, the subject may well meet criterion #1 as well, or the general notability guideline. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:24, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
