I still think the coverage can be considered significant (and now we have even more coverage such as the San Jose Mercury News article and the article about his promotion in Australia), and thus fulfills our need for both verifiability and notability. I respect the opinion of FT2 but think he misuses , there has never been a policy or guideline that has claimed that every single event in an article most be notable (but they must of course be verifiable), only the main subject (). I also don't see any BLP issue here, there is not even a single potentially negative statement in the article that is not very well sourced. And consider the common sense approach: People across the world (I got a CD in Sweden, some guy at the talk-page got the book in England and the US and Australia are also getting their share of promotion) are coming to wikipedia to look this guy up, so if we can provide a short but really well-sourced article on the guy, then why shouldn't we
