There was a large rabble about this before (back in 2007, I think), and I ended up abandoning the argument because of a persnickety admin, and don't really know about what came of the argument. Tcardone05 (talk) 05:17, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A Google search leads mainly back to his own pages. The article itself is nothing more than a mere promotional page. If the article for some reason should be deemed notable which I still cannot see how it could, it would certainly have to be rewritten to remove the promotional aspects to make it encyclopedic.--Canyouhearmenow 14:22, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, however, I would be OK with a redirect to TWiT.tv. The subject does not appear to pass the aforementioned guidelines. Location (talk) 19:38, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The music career alone is a reason to keep the article.MLBudToo (talk) 12:12, 22 October 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.236.128.42 (talk) [reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:39, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete because the editorial input clearly displays a lack of understanding of WP:NOT; for instance, birthdates and full names of living WP:KIDS are a very very bad idea (I'm deleting that sentence now). There are so many WP:SPS that the remaining ones are probably so also (CNET, SFSU). And there goes your article. If someone cared to stub it to WP:RS only and continue to claim notability by some policy criterion after that point, that might get my !vote discounted a little. JJB 00:37, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

The music aspect is not notable enough to keep the article either. Doing a search on the musical inclusions all relate back to the subjects own websites or articles the subject created. I stand by my original delete nomination. --Canyouhearmenow 03:01, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
