As a courtesy, I am nominating this page at the request of an IP posting at the village pump (see "music teacher?"). The editor is concerned that the teacher is not notable. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 03:43, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- For process' sake, I agree with that conclusion, so my vote would be delete. The accomplishments outlined in the article are only pertinent to the school, and those references or links given don't extend too far beyond primary sources. Without more third-party sources, I'm afraid this teacher is just one of many hired at schools around the country. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 03:49, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. 64 GHits, 2 GNews archive hits. Don't feel that the 1997 profile of him in the Star-Bulletin back when he was a high school kid really supports his notability [1], and that's the only non-trivial independent coverage of him in a WP:RS. Nice to see that back in 1997, he said his future career was "music teacher", and now that's precisely what he's doing, but there's doesn't seem to be any larger significance here. cab 04:13, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, the bar for being a notable music teacher is rather higher than this article asserts. --Dhartung | Talk 07:41, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment 68.4.22.10 removed the afd templet from the article and I warned them and replaced the templet. --Banana 00:00, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete A high school bandleader who is utterly non-notable. An "exchange concert" a month or so ago doesn't cut it. --jbmurray (talk|contribs) 04:51, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 01:07, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete (Probably Speedy). There's no real assertion that he's notable. nadav (talk) 06:57, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I don't think I created a good article. I'm just a student and a newbie Wikipedian. I think about deleting this article, too. Duane Otani 21:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
