Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kim Cascone
While apparently started by someone else, the article has been heavily edited by the subject (or someone doing a very good job of impersonating him), and the nearest that it comes to sourcing is a collection of primary external links. As a |BLP, it is going to have to be significantly rewritten (and sourced) if kept. However, the subject himself may well be notable. An article on "The Aesthetics of Failure" gets 185 hits of GScholar, and seems to have become something of a manifesto for glitch (music). The best GNews hit that I could identify was http://www.scotsman.com/news/ministry-of-sound-1-1146469 this one from The Scotsman, but as the rest seem to be in about a dozen languages and mostly from apparently specialist publications, someone who is more of a linguist and/or knows more about the less accessible areas of electronic music than me might well find more and better - and similarly for the GBooks hits. And there are also passing mentions in apparently reliable sources (like http://www.seattlepi.com/lifestyle/blogcritics/article/Music-Review-Joachim-Nordwall-Ignition-2443125.php this from the Seattle Post-Intelligencer) which suggest that readers is already expected to have heard of the subject - useless in themselves for notability but still hinting at sources elsewhere
