[edit] Pádraig

• Delete Non notable musician. Can be re-created if future work takes off. Petros471 14:05, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Please put more effort into your nominations. Instead of simply saying "non-notable", explain why it's not notable (e.g. fails WP:MUSIC). Cheers, fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:14, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

• Is there some reason this article couldn't be replaced with a redirect to Patrick? fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:14, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• Make redirect to Patrick - David Gerard 16:20, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• End of Time charted on the official British charts at 187 in 2004. - Pádraig
• Delete; Suspect article was created as a form of self advertising. the individual concerned is not sufficiently known / accomplished to require an article to himself. This could lead to every individual who has recorded a tune wanting an article. Also link End of Time, which has been edited from a redirect, claims it is a British debut single by Evince, which is a link to a page about a document viewer, so this is probably a hoax entry86.2.136.146 20:02, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete This article and the links End of Time and Evince do not seem to support the article and a link to a newly created page Debut Days also seems to have been edited to state Pádraig arranged Eric Clapton song Wonderful Tonight, which reached 30th in the British Charts in 1991 (Source:- British Hit Singles edition 16 by Guiness World Records), also (www.britishhitsingles.com), when Pádraig was only 6 years of age. The link in the info box of Debut Days which goes to Deepening_Days is promoting a alleged album for release in 2006 (advertising on Wikipedia. It also has further links to other pages which back up the hoax theory EG:- Paul_Hawkins. I also suspect this and the links from the page and subsequent article pages could be a hoax setup.

• End of Time is a direct link from the page because it's the lyrics to the song that was released. Pádraig does not claim to have arranged Eric Clapton's song but REARRANGED it for the album for which he obtain the rights to cover. Paul Hawkins is the name of one of the session vocalists from the album nothing to do with a formula one driver!
• Comment: If this article is deleted, should also all the articles about the Evince albums be deleted? Note that Evince is about a PDF viewer, not a British pop trio. — JIP | Talk 12:14, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete Article and links together, this article and the linked pages were created by the person who it is about, simply as a form of self promotion. Pádraig is not sufficiently know or worthy to be listed, The article has been created for no other reason than to give some publicity to himself. The Evince pdf viewer article should be kept as it is only referred to in error by bad editing. 86.2.136.146 14:37, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
