[edit] Yannis Brown

Not certain whether or not he is sufficiently notable, so I'm opening it up for discussion. --Alan Au 22:31, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

  • Is he not famous enough? WauloK 22:47, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak keep but edit to sound less gushing. He sounds reasonably important within his field. Chick Bowen 00:18, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Can I have a clue as to what you would like changed, specifically please? :) WauloK 04:22, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Sure: refer to him by his last name; replace "has commercial experience" (and similar--it makes it sound like a resume) with something neutral; replace "has always wanted to be a part" (sounds like a vanity page, even though I know this isn't one), also with something neutral. That ought to do it, I think. Chick Bowen 04:53, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, regrettably - a composer of "music" for mobile phones and game consoles? Give me strength! This article needs to be cut down to about 1/3 the current size - simply removing the superlatives will probably do that :-) - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 11:36, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Thanks, appreciate it. I thought it would get canned if it was too small so I try to pad these things out. I guess sometimes it's best to be concise. Btw, I'm a Wiki-n00b if you can't tell ;) WauloK 12:23, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep: I'm not sure how popular he may have been, but he has a significant body of work; I've got roughly 90 songs, and I've seen others listed on sites like audioscrobbler. I do know that he ranked highly in several compos... perhaps that should be made mention of? I'll try to gather some more information on him. Stilist 01:04, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
