Jim Boyd (musician)

This article has been a musician stub since August 2005, has very little detail, and the person doesn't seem to be very notable aside from winning record of the year at the Native American Music Awards in 2005. Bobblehead 02:11, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:BAND, and WP:BIO. If made to conform to WP:V, I'll change to keep but notify me on my talk page. SynergeticMaggot 03:05, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep award-winning musicians. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: No information present except that he won an award. His record label isn't given, sales aren't provided, and we don't even know in what year he won the award. Certainly there is no biography present, and yet the article is lodged at a biographical heading but talks about, I gather, his musical work with groups. Geogre 11:15, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- We do know what year, he won it this year. Songwriter of the Year. --badlydrawnjeff talk 12:05, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, but we still don't have evidence that he has passed our standards on musicians, and the article doesn't provide enough. Look, I'm in favor of the next great songwriter, etc., but the next great songwriter isn't our call. We have to have some measurements that he has passed the bar already and generated comment from disinterested parties that can be verified. Geogre 13:45, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - He's won a major music award. That's certainly within our standards. --badlydrawnjeff talk 13:46, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - he won Songwriter of the Year award in 2006 in the Native American Music Awards, according to that link above. LemonIce 12:40, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, notable. BoojiBoy 12:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Needs improvement, but meets WP:BAND. Kafziel 13:26, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
