Mike Fasano (musician) : Not independently notable, rock drummer.  No SIGCOV in RS, no evidence of notability.  Fails WP:GNG; WP:MUSICBIO; WP:BANDMEMBER ("Members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability.").  Thanks to WP:BEFORE I now know that Mike Fasano is the Tax Collector of Pasco County, Florida.

Alexandermcnabb ( talk ) 06:19, 10 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Mike Fasano has worked with bands such as Guns N' Roses , Stevie Nicks , Warrant , Tiger Army , and Rancid .  Just because this particular Wikipedia user doesn't feel he's notable enough is not a valid reason for deletion.
 -- Tweakofnature ( talk ) 13:29, 10 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Tweakofnature : I don't have a strong opinion here, but Alexandermcnabb explained their rationale very clearly and cited WP:GNG , WP:MUSICBIO , and WP:BANDMEMBER .  Please address those points and arguments rather than insinuating that Alexander is nominating this article for no reason.  Sock ( tock talk) 12:36, 16 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It's a very valid reason for deletion, the simple fact that there are no mentions of him in sources is further proof of that.  He hasn't headlined a major concert, sold a Grammy winning album or charted in Billboard.  He's a working musician with a long career, but that's not enough for notabilit here.

Thanks, ✗ plicit 13:57, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : No sources found, the article basically says he's a session drummer, so not likely to be notable.  The lack of sourcing is proof of that.  What's given in the article now isn't sufficient.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 15:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak delete .  I do think the staff written article in Modern Drummer magazine is one piece of significant in-depth RS on the subject.  However, it is the only the in-depth reliable source after a WP:BEFORE search.  There are a number of self-published blogs with significant coverage of the subject, but for GNG purposes I wouldn't count these, and there are also profiles in publications or websites for which the subject has either worked as a writer on music or as a promoter of drum equipment.  These lack independence.  There are many passing mentions of the subject in a variety of publications from concert reviews in newspapers and magazines to books with coverage of recordings.  The subject has recorded and performed with a wide range of notable bands.  In my personal opinion, the body of work in the recording side of things is encyclopedic worthy, however, the sourcing just isn't extent at present to justify an article.  Hence a "weak delete".  4meter4 ( talk ) 15:11, 26 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.  Please do not modify it.
