This article has been tagged with importance since May 17. No major edits have come since then (only wikifying) and the article itself is not notable. I move to delete this page. Diez2 00:47, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not much in the way of reliable sources that mention him on his own, I added the only one I could find quickly. Normally I'd say "redirect to his (more famous than him) band but hard to make a redirect since there are two possible targets. Still, he appears to satisfy the fairly stringent guidelines for the inclusion of musicians in that he "was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable." - 152.91.9.144 02:10, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep based on the fact that there are two possible targets for a redirect. Delete the line about how he's hinting at releasing more albums (the coy devil!) and tag it with every applicable stub tag in hopes that a subject matter expert will expand it.

*Speedy Delete and Merge Per A1 - Pegboy is a fairly well known punk band from years ago, however this page is not needed. Missvain 04:17, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • I really don't have a horse in this race, but a couple of comments on that suggestion: Delete and merge is problematic with regards to GFDL and is only done in dire cases. Further, if this page were merged, a redirect stops someone from re-creating this if they put the guy's name in and find there is no article. Finally, I'm not sure how the "A1" speedy deletion criterion applies. It says, "Very short articles providing little or no context." This article has plenty of that.

I understand your concern regarding my statement. I reread it a second ago and I agree that it sounds a little funny. Basically: Merge it perhaps with a Pegboy article and then redirect it so no one tries this again :) Thanks for the tip :D - Missvain 05:16, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
