[edit] Paul Dufour

Non-notable musician. He did play drums for a notable band, The Libertines, before they became successful, but I think that information is adequately covered in the band article and a separate one is not justified here. ("Paul Dufour" drummer) gets 65 Google hits. PROD tag was removed by original author. -Big Smooth 04:47, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• No vote yet because, as much as I hate the argument to keep things based on a multitude of like arguments, it is hard to vote delete when I know such articles as Andy White (drummer) and the lot seem to go unchallenged. GassyGuy 05:17, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• Note that White did actually play on a record (according to his article), though. I'm sure you have other examples you could cite, and I know that as you say you're not fond on using a "like" argument, but there is a difference, since Dufour never actually played on a Libs record, leaving before they were signed to Rough Trade. I can't see that an article of this length on him is in any way worthwhile, since he hasn't contributed to a notable recording - but I can see that people might possibly search for him, so I think he's worth a mention in the main Libs article and a redirect from his name.

I'll buy that reasoning. Redirect per Seb. GassyGuy 13:16, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
