[edit] Shaun foist
Information lacks NPOV and poor use of words (note: "tender age of 10", "beating his own drums", "molding his own very versatile style", "joined forces", "unstoppable combination of talent"), and is unsourced. Information comes from pages that are not credible (note YouTube video, Universal Music Publishing Group link out of date, Yahoo! Answers) and does not assert importance of Shaun Foist. It sounds more like a biography promoting the subject rather than an encyclopaedic article. <3 bunny 04:37, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Google comes up with nothing but MySpace entries, YouTube videos, and various blog posts. Duncan1800 (talk) 04:56, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
This individual is a credited drummer sponsored by 3 of the largest drum companies in the world. Plus the band is all over radio in their home town in cincinnati ohio. Sounds more like you are just being too damn picky as to some articles i have seen

- Comment: The main problem is lack of notability. Got sources? Can you improve that article and find references to the acts he's played with? Can you provide info on nationally-released albums or tracks by Mr. Foist? If so, get to it! Duncan1800 (talk) 05:39, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
