[edit] Israel Cannan

This had a notability warning, which I have since removed. I believe that this person is notable, however I'm adding this to AFD to see what the community says. The reason he is notable is that he recorded the latest theme song for Home and Away, something that is extremely notable. After all, almost all Australians (and more than a few UK citzens) know this song in their head. Ta bu shi da yu 10:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep Seems borderline to me, but I don't know enough about Aussie labels to tell whether his LP's legit or not. I'll defer to the native on this one. --Djrobgordon 10:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, as is there is nothing by what any reader could verify this article, therefore fails WP:V. If appropriate sources and references are added change to Keep Alf photoman 14:15, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Found two independent online sources which support the article's notability. Plus enough online chatter to demonstrate that he is noticed sufficiently to qualify for WP notability threshold. Probably should be tagged for more sources and cleanup. --Kevin Murray 14:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notability established by sources added by Kevin Murray. If Ta bu shi da yu withdraws the nomination, I think this could be a case for early closure with "consensus keep". -- Black Falcon 22:34, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
    • I have no problems with it being closed early. - Ta bu shi da yu 07:17, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I have wikified the article and rewritten it based on Kevin Murray's references. I have changed the reference from Home and Away from recording the theme to appearing in the show which I could find sources for. Capitalistroadster 00:45, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
I thought the theme song was sung by the Robertson Brothers? He's notable even as an actor, though, so that's not going to make much difference. JROBBO 01:02, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I've done a bit of tidy up work. John Vandenberg 01:29, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
