while finding sources for this biography, I only came across https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2021/jun/21/betty-boo-how-we-made-doin-the-do-slang-cunnilingus. this is a reliable source but it's just a few paragraphs from Rex Brough talking about an experience. this doesn't seem to meet GNG Password (talk)(contribs) 05:43, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

- I've logged in this time to reply. "King John" was myself and John Coxon. "The Red King" was an alias for myself after I stopped working with John. Let me know how I can confirm this. My work is there on discogs, and my work for BBC radio, some of which won Sony radio awards is on BBC Genome. The "Rex Brough" page have some errors and needs updating.

- Delete: per Wcquidditch, not enough coverage. Fails WP:NMUSICIAN. TheChineseGroundnut (talk) 07:14, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting as besides the nominator the only other uninvolved participating editor credited Wcquidditch, who did the deletion sorting, not the nominator, for their Delete vote which shows a lack of engagement with assessing this article and its sources. To the article subject, Discogs can supply information but isn't a source for establishing notability. Right now, we need more thoughtful participation here.
