[edit] Everette Harp
I'm not sure if this meets WP:MUSIC. Could we have some input from editors who have plenty of experience with the policy? The article was speedied before as a copyvio (it isn't one anymore), and the author keeps removing the 'notability' tag I've applied to it. I'm assuming that he'll also remove any PROD tags, so I'm bringing it here - a good-faith deletion discussion, if you will. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 16:40, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Passes WP:MUSIC on at least one count, as having more than two full-length major-label albums. A quick Google News archive search shows articles in the Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer, and others. Agree that the article as written doesn't assert notability well, but in this case it's definitely there. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 16:52, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - Meets WP:MUSIC, I'm sure more of the criteria will be met as (if?) the article expands. ---- WebHamster 17:14, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per Starblind, although some improvement is necessary. Stifle (talk) 18:35, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep I declined a speedy on the original article because I didn't notice the copyvio. It seemed obvious that this guy is notable and I was sure WP:RS and WP:V could be found with a little effort. I still think so. Pigmanwhat?/trail 02:34, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep Harp had a #1 Billboard debut. Notability proven. • Freechild'sup? 03:19, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
- Withdraw nomination, seeing the recent additions by Freechild (talk · contribs). I am not a Jazz afficionado, and it's nice to know that the article is notable after all! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 13:51, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
