Non-notable individual lacking GHIts and GNEWS of substance. Appears to fail WP:BIO. ttonyb (talk) 22:59, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP Notable individual that has been written in several publications in his field including Billboard Magazine as listed in article references WP:RFD#KEEP. (Coogi15 (talk) 04:40, 10 June 2010 (UTC)) — Coogi15 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Comment – Unfortunately, there is no evidence the individual is notable using Wikipedia guidelines as a criteria. The references either do not mention the individual or they do not meet the criteria in reliable sources. I can't tell about the Billboard article because I cannot get a copy of it; regardless, a single article is not "non-trivial" coverage. ttonyb (talk) 04:50, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The article reads like a resumé. Basically he was marketing director briefly for Def Jam, and that's it, that's his claim to fame; he's now trolling for business as an independent. No sourcing to indicate notability or verify the claims made. --MelanieN (talk) 01:47, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
