Seems like clear violation of WP:N and WP:RS. Many of the links are dead or very outdated. None demonstrate particular notability. Already AFD'ed once with no objection. Wknight94 talk 18:52, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Comment The references provided with this 10 year old article are definitely a problem. But deep googling his name reveals--in addition to lots of small time, insignificant coverage and self-downloads-- at least some RS indication of long-term recognition in both his home town and the larger gay community. (An independent documentary on his career has been produced, but I can't determine if it's significant or little more than a You Tube post. Strange.) His website additionally chronicles press recognition that doesn't turn up by googling. Much of it is junk, but perhaps enough of them are good enough to merit notability. I'm not familiar enough with gay press/RS's to weigh in fairly, but I think some digging is required to give this AfD a fair hearing. ShelbyMarion (talk) 20:55, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. Dead links aren't in themselves a reason to delete. In this case, after the article was nominated for deletion, @Thincat: was able to use InternetArchiveBot to rescue 13 references, and @CAPTAIN RAJU: used https://tools.wmflabs.org/refill/ to format some references. The article now looks a lot more referenced. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:36, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - totally unknown nationally, rarely if ever tours, thus fails notability as a performing artist. FWIW, I am a gay man and support gay musicians and performers. Bearian (talk) 20:37, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
