[edit] J. D. Myers
Highly promotional and non-neutral piece on a borderline but non-notable musician. A search turned up only false positives. He has not had any chart singles, and only one of his albums was on a major label (the article also indicates that said album was yanked before it even hit shelves). There also don't seem to be any reliable sources about him anywhere. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 04:50, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete Fails WP:MUSIC. He released an album, but that doesn't automatically qualify as the album isn't notable. PeterSymonds | talk 09:23, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete can only find one source mentioning him from 1992 (from the Roanoke Times), plus he fails WP:MUSIC as a musician because unreleased albums are in general not notable; however, they may be notable if they have significant independent coverage in reliable sources and the single he released does not turn up any news results either.

- Comment There is a review of the album on All Music Guide but it's really not that substantial (although promising). Still not a significant source, though. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:09, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
