I came here originally to argue that this wasn't the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC compared to a recent murderer in the UK, but I've become convinced that this man fails WP:BANDMEMBER. Nothing on this stub page separates him from his former band, the discography section is exclusively his work with this band. There are very, very few sources exclusively about this man (often in relation to his band). A google search for "'Aiden' 'Jake Davison'" gets the Wiki mirrors on the first page.

- Delete; no evidence of notability independent to Aiden. Appropriate to replace with disambiguation page to direct readers to Aiden and Plymouth shooting. MIDI (talk) 10:09, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - Normally the easy solution would be to redirect to his band, but that is a problem because he unluckily shares a name with the villain in the Plymouth shooting, and that bonehead is more likely to be a search term. I also like the previous voter's idea about straightening things out with a new disambig page. This Jake Davison has no notable accomplishments outside of his band and does not qualify for his own article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:30, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - I agree with this. "Jake Davison" should be a disambig page and the two entries link to Aiden and Plymouth shooting Unknown Temptation (talk) 17:56, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
- I can create such a page myself if the ultimate result of this AfD is to delete the drummer's article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 18:06, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

- Disambiguatify as above. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:07, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- Support disambig Redirect the current article to the band (with no redirect) and create the dab page. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:09, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- Dab and redirect is a good solution for an otherwise marginallly notable musician. Bearian (talk) 16:24, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
