[edit] Td lind

Musician bio. Looks like autobio. Notability check please. -- RHaworth 12:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as vanity and OR. Subject does not appear to pass WP:MUSIC. I can't easily verify whether this person was in fact signed to major labels in the past, but his current label, "Tall Tale Records," returns only four Ghits - three of which are not about the record label. [1].
  • Delete a search at allmusic dot com, a canonical music site (think IMDB for music) turns up nothing. If he EVER recorded, or produced, or engineered, or ever appeared on any significant recording he would show up here. He doesn't. Ergo, he is not notable. --Jayron32 20:22, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete vain vanity in vain. Danny Lilithborne 21:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Save One search and oh the world has moved on, do you intend to delete every artist who has not signed for a major label? Should wiki have signed for Britannica?Stillfreewheelinfranklin 02:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
  • comment Allmusic is a fairly canonical site. It covers nearly every artist with an sizable distribution deal, whether major label or indy. If his albums are self produced and distributed locally or self-distributed, then no one knows about him, if no one has ever heard of him, then he is not notable. If he becomes notable in the future, he will then warrent an article. People who are not famous yet, but are really good musicians and just SHOULD be famous do not rate high enough to pass the bar on notability. Look, I have done more than you have in support of him. If you assert he is notable, just provide us the sources to prove so. A few independant reviews in the national music press ought to do. --Jayron32 03:21, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
