Fetchy

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:BLP of a musician, with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC and no strong evidence of reliable source coverage: of the 41 sources here, nearly all of them are to social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest or Instagram, his own primary source content about himself, non-notable blogs or the websites of directly affiliated organizations -- and the few citations that do actually count as reliable source coverage are, right across the board, to his own hometown newspaper (and even some of them are supporting non-notable sports endeavours, like junior hockey, that don't pass WP:ATHLETE either.) It may just be WP:TOOSOON for a person who has the potential to eventually qualify for a Wikipedia article -- I have actually heard of the guy before, because the "associated acts" in his infobox really truly ain't lyin', so the potential for him to get over the bar in the future does exist -- but this, as written, is not the article or the sourcing that gets him there. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he can be sourced better than this. Bearcat (talk) 04:00, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as none of this better satisfies the applicable music notability. SwisterTwister talk 05:51, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete, because there are some good sources. That said, he does not satisfy notability in one area; he has happened to get into the news a few times for different reasons, but really nothing beyond local or at best regional coverage. Might become notable in the future, as the nom said. Ajraddatz (Talk) 09:08, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
