For such an important musician (according to the article), you should expect more than 267 unique hits (including namesakes). In my opinion, fails WP:GNG. Looks like selfpromo. The Banner talk 16:32, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

• Comment - You made a comment about 267 unique hits...what is that in reference to?

:I don't even follow this type of music and I'd heard of him, so I'm leaning toward notability, but I'd like to compare this to the music guidelines and hear what others have to say before I make a solid vote. Bali88 (talk) 21:46, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Bud4music (talk) 00:37, 26 October 2014 (UTC)I have contributed several parts of this page over the past few years as I am a Latin Jazz lover and have followed this artist and many others. He is certainly notable in music. He has a US national tv special (PBS) and many Billboard charted songs.I have deleted recent additions I made to the page that did not have citations, yet I know to be true from several others I have interviewed. I do not have any affiliation to the artist other than a fan of his work and the genre.Bud4music (talk) 00:37, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Chrisdunbar2007 (talk) 21:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)I made changes in edits to awards section that seemed poorly setup- not in AP or wiki style- but content is sound in my opinion. As I read comments here- subject Longoria is certainly a notable musician in this genre. I noted that some recent content is overly wordy and in too much detail for Wikipedia and may need even further editing. Chrisdunbar2007 (talk) 21:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)ChrisDunbar2007

: Comment - my first question is what are you referring to by 267 unique hits? I get 25 million hits in Google, so I'm not sure where your looking. Not to say many of them are any use at all. JTdale ^Talk 20:31, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

::When you do a Google Search on "David" and "Longeria", I get about 27 million hits. But when searching on "David Longoria" I only get 53 200 hits. The 267 show up when you take a closer look and that includes several namesakes. Like "David Longoria Insurance". The Banner talk 23:50, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

• Keep. Passes multiple criteria of wp:musicbio, including 1, 2, 11, 12, probably more. The blatant advertising isn't a reason to delete, it can be stubified to bland facts and rebuilt if need be. Earflaps (talk) 02:05, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
