• Apparently quite active promoting himself on a variety of web forums, he is completely non-notable, at this time. Delete. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:51, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
• I published this stub article by accident, experimenting with the publication process and seeing how it compared to the Sandbox. I apologize for the confusion. I am still acquainting myself with the publication process on Wikipedia. I will say, though, having a public like Kaye Ballard give attention to the work is not something that can just be created on a web forum. Her official website is not a web forum. I realize that might be viewed as "circumstantial," seeing that is the case with many other articles marked for deletion. If you choose to delete I'm okay with it. I would like to ask for you guys to check on a couple of other articles I have researched: Giancarlo Scalia, Mark Hayes, and Nick Pittsinger or Varien. Their source information should be checked too, because I feel a lot of their text is based on information drawn from their websites. Again, my apologies. Delete if you wish. There's more thorough work that must be done.Jaxhistorian

:*Thank you, Jaxhistorian, for not taking the WP:BATTLEGROUND mentality that usually seems to prevail in deletion discussions. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:09, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

:*thank you 86.17.222.157. I'll be honest I actually am now wanting to keep this article, because I see more potential in this than most artists. But I understand that the politics of Wikipedia doesn't usually allow this, and I guess it's for the best. I'll keep watching and adjusting this article either in its live version, on in the sandbox of it's deleted.Jaxhistorian (talk) 02:16, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

• Comment Jaxhistorian I suggest moving it to sandbox and give yourself more time to find independent, third party evidence of notability. If they simply don't exist then you are probably wasting energy writing an article that doesn't merit notability. However, thanks for info on Giancarlo Scalia, Mark Hayes, Nick Pittsinger and Varien pages. None of these have the sources to qualify for a wikipedia entry, and they should be nominated for deletion. There are simply too many articles vs. editors to catch everything. Unworthy articles slip through the cracks all the time. ShelbyMarion (talk) 20:25, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
• Delete nothing coming close to passing the notability guidelines for musicians. May some day, but right now it is far too soon.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:38, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
• Delete as the article itself shows nothing to state how and why this can be independently notable as its own article; it's frankly something best kept at his own social media, and I would not be surprised if those were the intentions here. SwisterTwister talk 02:39, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:TOOSOON and WP:UPANDCOMING. Composers in blues, jazz, and classical music rarely come into their own until their thirties. There is zero evidence that this subject is even out of college or conservatory, much less a notable professional. More likely, this just a talented teenager.

:*I've already stated my bit, and he has completed his school. I never was aware of a WP:UPANDCOMING tag, though. Thanks for sharing!Jaxhistorian (talk) 20:46, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
