Comment: So basically, he does not meet , but he should be kept because of name-dropping.  Did I interpret your comments correctly, because that's not a very sound reason for keeping an article

Comment: I never liked Jrod's use of slang on talk pages and cared very little for his work at Wikipedia, but in all fairness, this time is clear to me that the AfD nominator doesn't understand wiki policies. No matter how much you don't like the citations or you think the subject isn't notable for Wikipedia, you can't delete critical links like this http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Edward_Vinatea&diff=next&oldid=401307845 then do a fD. A proper action would be to voice concerns or ask questions to the main editors at talk page, but stripping an article off like that disqualifies his nomination.

Comment: The Keep proponents in the previous AfDs ''solely'' based their stance on the fact that being an engineer for prominent musicians means that the subject somehow passes  and is notable.  Errr, excuse me?  Do we also cite the artist who did the album cover art, or the musician's agent, both of whom likewise materially contribute to a musician's success?  Of course not, because ''|notability is not inherited.'' Beyond that, this unwarranted stretching of the notability criteria misses the fundamental premise of notability criteria: that you can claim notability for (say) a popular artist because someone with a song at the top of the Billboard charts can be presumed to be featured in multiple citations in reliable sources, and so pass the GNG.  No such presumption can be made about a sound engineer, be the musicians for whom he works ever so notable.  So ... show me the sources.  Period
