GNG fail. I couldn't find any WP:RS to back of the claims. Theredproject (talk) 13:26, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

• Delete Serious lack of real notability, all very trivial.Slatersteven (talk) 13:45, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
• Delete Yeah, that's a delete and a half right there. No notability and the Discography segment is all over the place, not in Chronological order or anything. Not worthy of a page, and seems as if it was written personally. Cheesy McGee (talk) 13:48, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
• Keep - seems quite easy to find [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=xEiVSQAACAAJ&dq=%22Casey+Bates%22+-wikipedia+music&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj78oWn9vLhAhVGTBUIHYd8AJYQ6AEIKjAA a book] and news sources using the links in the afd. Also the discography is in a sortable table, which works perfectly well. Oculi (talk) 13:50, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

::The book is published by Books LLC: "Its primary work is collecting Wikipedia and Wikia articles and selling them as printed and downloadable". ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:28, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

:::I seem to recall that some of their books cite edits I have made here and there (me by name), not an RS.Slatersteven (talk) 14:37, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

::::Does the book even exist? As pointed out above, Books LLC is little more than a publish-on-demand business that collects free content from wikipedia and packages them as print or downloadable files. In this case, it is simply a list of this subjects credits. ShelbyMarion (talk) 12:34, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

• Delete Seems to be an experienced, accomplished professional in his industry. Plenty of credits on notable projects but generally in lesser roles that typically don't merit encyclopedic importance. Bigger problem is the subject lacks significant RS coverage. ShelbyMarion (talk) 12:34, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
• Delete, Not notable, lacks coverage. Alex-h (talk) 20:19, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
