Non-notable per WP:BIO. How is this guy "fairly well heard of" when his name gets about 7 hits on Google? [1] Flyingtoaster1337 13:50, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete not even close to notable for anything. sources seem to be bogus. --Tainter 14:17, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete for obvious reasons. Claims of notability totally unsupported. Does anybody actually do schoolwork in sixth-form colleges? Seems they're awfully busy creating stuff like this. Fan-1967 16:30, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete unless at least one verifiable source i.a. with WP:BIO is added by end of this AfD Alf photoman 18:20, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Although claims are dubious, I have checked said cited newspapers at library archive and articles are genuine. I would recommend that a reliable online source is found ASAP for users without this facility Molotov146202148 19:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC) — Molotov146202148 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
• Delete. Unverifiable and non-notable per WP:BIO. I'm not convinced by the current references. Prolog 19:55, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - it looks like an attack page, to me, to be honest, and fails WP:BIO by a long shot. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as WP:HOAX. Nothing in the article confirmable. --Dhartung | Talk 22:08, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Admittedly many of the claims appear spurious - no doubt this article could at the very least do with a clean up - but Mr Jolsen and the Roses for the Dead have appeared on stage at the Bridgewater Hall, leading me to suspect that there is at least a kernel of truth in this article worth keeping. The gang rape thing seems over the top though. --Nev1 | Talk 23:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete the claims to notability is largely based on spurious, and spurious, claims. Anyway, there is no indication taht Roses for the Dead satisfy WP:MUSIC. Thus, without assurance that this information is verifiable, this article fails WP:BIO and WP:BLP.-- danntm ^T _C 05:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as WP:HOAX. Creator should be banned for vandalism as he also vandalized St. Ambrose College article. Shaundakulbara 08:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. --MPerel ^{( talk | contrib)} 09:43, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep If better sources for citation can be recommended, please do so. It is the determination of the creator to strive for accurecy and confirm notability 217.180.78.33 12:33, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

    • You are mistaken. Unregistered users may certainly participate. However, their comments may be disregarded if they do not conform with Wikipedia standards. Fan-1967 14:37, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Comment Read the claims made under the controversies section of the article. These references are fake, the article is vandalistic bullshit, User:Molotov146202148 is lying and any claims to the contrary come from co-conspirators. Shaundakulbara 13:03, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
