[edit] Mantis Evar
Though he has a nice resume, doesn't seem to make the notability cut in WP:MUSIC; no non-trivial sources of notability provided. I haven't been able to find any coverage in major media sources. Most of his credits indicate that he is part of a sound production team, versus THE producer (e.g., Butch Vig, Brian Eno, Rick Rubin). Having a song dedicated to you on a trumpeters album does not make you notable (lots of music releases have dedications to various people). Has a tiny stub entry in AllMusicGuide OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep He designed Metallica and Gun's and Roses' sound systems, had an album dedicated to him by Eric Truffaz, is being considered for a documentary by Lee Gottsegen, and runs the largest collaborative music community on the net and you're saying he doesn't have enough notability? I've seen so many ridiculous articles on wikipedia left up and you're going to delete this? Also, its not a song dedicated to him, that album is called "Mantis" and the whole album was dedicated to him.Ryan.rogalski (talk) 17:29, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

- Comment You won't find any of those criteria (dedications, designing someone's sound system) in WP:MUSIC. OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:35, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- At that point, however, the creative professionals part of WP:BIO would be the standard to apply. —Quasirandom (talk) 18:09, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, but I see no evidence that this person meets that section of WP:BIO either. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:12, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Can't say I disagree. It's just, if you're going to apply a standard, make sure it's the right one. —Quasirandom (talk) 23:00, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete - per nom. If that documentary ever comes out, this could change, but nothing yet indicates notability. Napsterbater (talk) 21:41, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
