This was nominated for CSD on copyright grounds, however the editor rebuilt the article and now there is insufficent proof of copyright to speedy delete. Ordinarily this would be the end of the deletion concern, however I remain concerned about the article's current state, it still reads somewhat like an advertisement and I am uncertain that there is sufficient notability to justify having an article on the subject. I put to the community the issue of whether or not the article should be retained on Wikipedia. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:52, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Non-notable individual. Lacks non-trivial support. Can't find much about him on web. reddogsix (talk) 18:50, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - I could find a couple of semi-good refs, but not enough. Bgwhite (talk) 08:23, 2 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per AllyD. Keep There is this, three pages of stories in which he figures as composer, performer, festival director... There also seems to be more than a few hits for guitar quartets performing his work. It's not easy for a classical composer to get noticed, but I think he's notable enough. – Margin1522 (talk) 23:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Can't verify details which would allow this individual to meet WP:MUSIC criteria. NickCT (talk) 13:26, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: I've looked at this a couple of times during the AfD and extended the article with such references as I could find. The faculty biography provides basic verification but, while wary of the cultural bias under which a worthy composer/performer such as Roux gets much less media coverage than sundry celebs, the awards and reviews to hand don't really provide the in-depth coverage needed to demonstrate WP:MUSICBIO notability.

  • Comment: OK, to facilitate this discussion I'm changing my !vote to Delete. By now I think we've done what we can. Seems unlikely that more sources will be found. – Margin1522 (talk) 15:14, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
