Non-notable artist, no assertion of artist notability. asenine t/c 13:15, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep. A quick proquest search returns 27 news articles about the subject. Polevaults over WP:MUSIC. Article needs serious cleanup and insertion of those references, not deletion. Celarnor Talk to me 13:21, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment: The article as it now stands is about an album, not the artist. If the album is notable (not sure if it is), the page needs to be moved to reflect the album name. If the article is about the artist, it needs to be rewritten.--Fabrictramp (talk) 16:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment: Normally, when I see this kind of thing, I fix it myself, but I don't know enough about the music industry to know how to go about writing an article for a musician. He seems notable enough, but the article needs to be about him and not the album. Celarnor Talk to me 16:35, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment Eric Himan's own website reveals some sources of third party reviews [1], and the NME has this, though I'm not sure if it counts for anything. sparkl!sm hey! 17:25, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep and tag for cleanup/expansion. Google news has tons of articles about this fellow. Chubbles (talk) 20:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
