Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a musician, who has no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC and not enough reliable source coverage to get over WP:GNG. Two of the four references here are to his own primary source "buy the music" pages on online music stores — and while the other two are media coverage, they're both from the same newspaper in his own hometown. Nothing here passes any of NMUSIC #2 through #12, so criterion #1 is the only one that's really in play here — but getting one profile in his own hometown newspaper seven years ago and then having them review his album three weeks later is not enough coverage to pass NMUSIC #1 all by itself, if there's no evidence that he ever got any coverage beyond his hometown and/or at any other time. There's also a probable conflict of interest here, as the creator was a WP:SPA named "Winnipegcowboy" (the subject being a country singer from Winnipeg whose self-released first album was titled Campground Cowboy.)

Delete: -- insufficiently notable musician with limited local coverage and slim pickings as far as GNG is concerned. Quis separabit? 19:27, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
