Possibly non-notable, possibly fails WP:BIO. Asking for ruling. Cool BlueLight my Fire! 00:32, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak delete, reading the article, he seems to have some notability. But without sources, the information is unreliable. (I like that tuba, though...) :-) --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 00:45, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. The article was created with a spelling error in the title. The correct spelling is James Gourlay. His records alone make him notable, I think. There are many references for him when you search on Google with the correct spelling. --Eastmain 01:04, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - the article is puffery as written but searching through news articles shows he will easily pass WP:BIO requirements. Very well known musician, judge in international concerts, present on a few music releases I can find, quite a few mentions in news articles etc... - Peripitus (Talk) 01:47, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep per above two justifications. --Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? 16:14, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
    Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? (talk ยท contribs) just opined "strong keep" in 27 AFD discussions over a period of 35 minutes, several times with clearly disruptive rationales. Uncle G 16:48, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep; seems notable enough to me. --ElKevbo 21:18, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble is a notable band, and the adjectives in the articles can be removed (an anti-adjective bot might come in handy; it should be easy to write. ). DGG 23:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Satisfies WP:Music. Cricket02 19:09, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
