A speedy tag was declined but I think this is a straightforward non-notable autobiography, ie. spam. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 17:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:N, therefore, non-notable.--Ryan Cross (talk ♠ Review) 21:18, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment On what do you base your circular 'delete' argument? Have you personally done a search to verify that he is non-notable? Have you seen his biography on his music publisher's site which reprints an interview [1] with him from Trace Magazine, for example? Have you checked to see if he might meet the notability criteria for composers? He co-wrote one of the songs on Alice Smith's latest album. Voceditenore (talk) 06:08, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete with no prejudice to re-creation when/if he does become more notable. I have done a pretty thorough search, and he does not appear to have achieved that yet. The solo tour hasn't happened yet for one thing. One of the songs on the Alice Smith album mentioned above, is notable ("Dream"), but it was not the one that Mohr co-wrote ("Desert Song"). And no, Wikipedia is not the place for advance PR. However, it was right for the admin to have declined the speedy delete. It was slapped on the article within 2 minutes of its creation! Far more appropriate to tag and then wait a few days to see if the creator or anyone else could have developed the article and provide references. Voceditenore (talk) 06:08, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
