No individual notability, the article is mostly about the band not the subject. There is a lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:GNG & WP:NM. Flooded with them hundreds 12:02, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the Levellers (band). And do the same for other members Jeremy Cunningham, Matt Savage (Levellers), and Charlie Heather (Levellers). And then protect against reversion of the redirects. All four articles, including this one on Jonathan Sevink, have been redirected to the band in the past, but the person behind all of them, an editor named Slade121, has reverted the redirects without giving further evidence of independent notability for each guy outside the band. Also note that each of these articles briefly introduces each band member in the first paragraph, and then repeats a basic history of the band. So each individual member's article has no assertion of notability outside the band, and I can find no evidence of such. This pattern has already been noticed for yet another member, Simon Friend, who was subjected to this AfD in which the ultimate decision was the same as my recommendation here. Note that the individual article for yet another band member, Mark Chadwick (Levellers), probably qualifies for notability due to his solo work outside the band, but that article also has a repeat of the basic band history, which should be axed. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:11, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Merge with and redirect to Levellers (band) - as the nominator says, the article is mostly about the band, not the individual musician. Vorbee (talk) 08:33, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

At risk of repeating myself from above... Redirecting is easy, but so is reverting a redirect, and that has already been done multiple times for articles on various non-notable members of this band. If the result here is to redirect, there should also be some protection to keep things that way. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 16:56, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
