Prodded under A7. Prod was removed. I cannot find how this meets wp's notability requirements, and prod remover failed to indicate it as well. Others are welcome to try to find indicia of notability. Epeefleche (talk) 03:16, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: You did not propose deletion under A7. You requested speedy deletion per CSD A7. The article claims CDs, DVDs and books published, major concerts performed, media reviews and TV appearances. So CSD A7 is not applicable. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 12:51, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I stand corrected. I did request speedy deletion under A7. The removal of the tag was accompanied only by the following edit summary, however, which did not indicate why A7 was not an appropriate reason for deletion in this case: "notability clearly stated". In addition, none of what is now indicated above rose to the level IMHO of addressing the A7 concerns.--Epeefleche (talk) 15:09, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete Has enough claims to notability but lacks cites to properly verify (other than the primary source of his own website). I had a bit of a look around, and what I could find suggests he might have border-line notability, but without evidence I'd say delete. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 12:51, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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

Delete. He's clearly an accomplished musician, and the fact the he performs regularly and has several releases means that I am looking for a reason to keep, but I couldn't find any significant coverage or evidence of notability that would justify keeping the article. Allmusic lists one album, with little detail, and Canadian sites that I would expect to have some coverage of such an artist if notable such as Exclaim! and canoe.ca had nothing.--Michig (talk) 07:58, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
