No indication of notability; a dead link is the only source, although the article contains an external link to the subject's web site.

An IP editor continues to add material unsourced (edit summary suggests he got info from the subject himself, suggesting a WP:COI). An earlier PROD was removed by that IP editor.

Note: an earlier claim of an award has been deleted, as not supported, and indeed contradicted, by its reference; the reference only said he'd entered the competition; it also looked like a draft announcement, with highlights of proposed edits, so it was not a reliable source in any event.

A musician is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because he exists; reliable source coverage which verifies the accomplishment of one or more specific things that satisfy WP:NMUSIC must be present. But while there are claims here that would satisfy NMUSIC if they were sourced, nothing here is actually referenced at all and better sourcing isn't readily locatable — all I can find on either Google or ProQuest is glancing namechecks of his existence, not substantive coverage about him. And NMUSIC is not passed by claiming that it's passed; it's passed by reliably sourcing the truth of the claim. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 18:30, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete My search for sources comes up empty. Present content has one non-independent reference. FeatherPluma (talk) 22:48, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
