Fails WP:GNG/WP:MUSICBIO. Sources cited are PR blurbs, i.e. not WP:RS. Kleuske (talk) 23:28, 20 August 2017 (UTC) I went back and cited a couple of better references. I just hate to see this get deleted. It's not much but I worked hard on it. The Newbie06[reply]

Better references? Where? Bearcat (talk) 16:42, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Musicians are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist — we're an encyclopedia, not a free public relations or social networking platform. The article cites no reliable source coverage about him in media, and makes no claim that he's accomplished anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC. So at best it's WP:TOOSOON. No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he can be properly sourced as passing a Wikipedia inclusion criterion, but nothing here already satisfies the requirements today.
