Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bill Foley (singer songwriter)
WP:NOTNEWS as a  and a |fork of 2016 Ohio machete attack.  The subject is not notable as a musician.  The entirety of his coverage is due to one event that actually didn't get more than local coverage (majority of sources are Columbus-based).  As a BLP article, the sources pertaining to the restaurant owner, other victims, and details pertaining to the attack are ''not relevant'' to Foley's BLP.  His musical career appears to be limited solely to Columbus and environs, as evidenced by https://www.gigmasters.com/music/bill-foley/calendar?past=1 his press kit.  I looked back four years, and he basically played two restaurants (one being the Nazareth) and a few one-off gigs.  The only person who claims he's a "nationally touring artist" is Foley himself, and he has no material in his press kit to support his opening act claims whatsoever.  Therefore, both the statement that he's nationally touring and that his band is popular are subjective and unsupported by any independent sources, nor are they really all that well supported by ''non-independent'' sources.  There are, by the way, very few cover acts that ever function more than regionally, and Foley is one of them - his non-regional appearances seem to have been based on playing for personal friends and calling them business gigs.  The three criteria of BLP1E are that reliable sources cover him only in the context of one event; that seems to be the case.  He's otherwise a low-profile individual, because local coverage isn't sufficient.  The event itself is also not significant; it received no coverage outside the Columbus area.  On top of all that, there is serious |coatracking of sources to build superficial notability, but  would seem to apply here as well - repetition of information is not depth of coverage
