Wayne Anderson (singer)

Fails WP:GNG, as the subject of this article is a singer who hasn't released any albums and doesn't seem to have any album credits at all. A couple of television appearances don't meet the threshold for notability, especially since neither the subject of this article nor the television appearances received much coverage. Also relies too heavily on primary sources, as nearly all information comes from interviews with the subject if this article. Considering the dearth of secondary sources, it's almost impossible to write an article in which information isn't sourced almost exclusively from statements he has made about himself.JMB1980 (talk) 01:10, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep rather than a couple of tv appearances he actually starred in a 3 year tv series directly about him which qualifies for a WP:NMUSIC criteria 12 pass with reliable sources significant coverage already in the article such as the NZ Herald, Stuff, Radio New Zealand and others, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 22:31, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Actually, it wasn't a TV series that ran for three years, it was a seven-episode series that ran in 2006 and then a follow-up seven episode series that aired two years later. Considering how little coverage these programs received, I don't think he can be considered the subject of a "substantial broadcast."JMB1980 (talk) 01:45, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
