[edit] Toastmaster (songwriter)

Stumbled across this while creating the George Jessel article. Seems of quite marginal notability. 107 Google hits for the name "Grant Huling". -- Decumanus 03:15, 2004 Nov 30 (UTC)

• Delete: (We have an article on Georgie Jessel?) There is an additional problem with this article, aside from lack of notability of the person in question, and that's that the term "toastmaster" was used in the ska music scene for the person called an "MC" in rap. The reason that's a problem is that "Toastmaster (musician)" would logically discuss the term and its development and personnel (Ranking Roger, e.g.), and "Toastmaster (songwriter)" is both too narrow and too misleading. However, the reason for deletion is vanity. Geogre 16:02, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. I'm usually rather generous with my tolerant votes for articles about little-known artists, but this one reeks more of vanity than artistic expression. Wyss 12:19, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
