No indication of external coverage. No references supplied to substantiate any facts asserted in the article. Does not presently meet WP:BLP requirements that all BLP articles must include references. Sole claim to meeting WP:MUSIC notability criteria is placement at spot 39 on the 2013 UK music charts - which my best efforts have failed to confirm as true thus far. Article appears to have been created by an affiliate/representative of the record label the artist in question is signed to. Searches attempted to verify chart placement included "2013 UK singles chart" and "2013 UK singles chart ryan lawrie". - Vianello (Talk) 03:46, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete the chart that he peaked on turns out to have been not an official UK singles chart, but the iTunes UK singles chart, a deprecated chart according to WP:BADCHARTS. Independent coverage seems to be limited to local press articles. Best of luck to him, and he may well turn out notable in time, but he's not there yet. Ruby Murray 14:41, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Comment: Thanks for looking into that. It's good to know it wasn't an outright fabrication at least. I feel a bit silly for missing that. - Vianello (Talk) 22:08, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Keep. I've added some new references for some press by local press, television and radio. I hope that you would reconsider the deletion of this page as I now believe it meets the following criteria for Notability(Music) section 1 Ross McFadyen (talk) 23:32, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
