  • Delete. While he does yield a bunch of ghits, none of them are secondary, non-COI, reliable sources. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 23:51, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Notable published composer. Briefly rummaging through only the first page of "'Christopher Norton' composer" ghits, many do seem to be commercial sales sites, but I did go to Google news archives which do list this artist in multiple nontrivial outside sources [1], i.e Washington Post and Greensboro News, etc. ♫ Cricket02 (talk) 16:22, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep: A notable published composer, just I think the article needs a bit of cleaning up, that's all. His books have made it over here in Australia and are well played due to being on the AMEB list. I think the number of internationally distributed books by him are enough to assert notability.

  • Keep per Cricket02 - The man is a successful composer and music educator--this info about him enriches WP. I added a passing cite or two.--Wageless (talk) 13:34, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
