|nomreason=No indication of notability. He is on the faculty of Hochschule für Musik Franz Liszt, Weimar ([https://www.hfm-weimar.de/staff/professors-teachers/lehre-detail/?L=1&tx_jobase_pi3%5BjoOrgaDetail%5D=62&tx_jobase_pi3%5BjoRefererId%5D=&tx_jobase_pi3%5Baction%5D=orgadetail&tx_jobase_pi3%5Bcontroller%5D=Elements&cHash=4767f0404c2aa6459be81eae68ea434c]) and has been a conductor on five albums ([https://www.discogs.com/artist/2290132-Walter-Hilgers]), but none of them have charted and they're on five different labels, none of them major, so no evidence that he is prominent enough to have been signed to a recording deal. I don't see how he meets WP:GNG; as a professor, does not meet WP:NACADEMIC; and as a conductor, he does not meet WP:MUSICBIO.

Notability

I PRODded this yesterday, as I see no claims of notability (noted in the template above). It was reverted today by {{u|Andrew Davidson}}, but with no substantive reason given. Andrew Davidson, can you explain why you think Hilgers meets notability (whether under WP:NACADEMIC, WP:MUSICBIO, or something else entirely)? If there's a good claim to notability I'm missing, I don't want to take it to AFD (and it would be worth including in the article, too). TJRC (talk) 18:34, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
