I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this biography of a music producer and manager, and only found this reference from The Urban Buzz, which I'm not sure is reliable. The main reference in the article as it currently exists is to an offline biography from PSI North-South Partners, which appears to be a PR company. The two references to the person's company website, BluRaffe, are failing to load for me. I do not see that this person meets WP:NMUSIC or WP:ANYBIO. The article has been tagged with One source since 2011 (it arguably has three - the PSI biography, Blu Raffe and an article from Variety which doesn't mention Manerson) and with Notability since the same date. I did remove some unsourced content before deciding to nominate this for AfD, which you can see in the history. Tacyarg (talk) 20:32, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: And besides the nom's findings, this is a BLP that has several unsourced assertions, quite aside from almost all the sources being primary or unusable. Ravenswing 21:59, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Zero hits in Gnews tells you how notable this individual is, Gsearch is his twitter account, then some site where I can verify his ancestry, then it goes to discogs, then off to non-RS land. Smacks of PROMO. Oaktree b (talk) 22:07, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wikipedia is WP:NOTLINKEDIN. In recording, producers contribute to the work, executive producers do not, so this subject does not qualify for WP:NMUSIC. Also does not meet WP:BIO/WP:GNG. Lastly there are a lot of claims that can't be sourced outside of primary sources/PR. —siro χ o 22:16, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
