Delete, or redirect to Napalm Death. The lone reference is to an interview with the band Napalm Death, and that comes nowhere near establishing his notability. Most of his career has been with Napalm Death, so any salvageable content should be merged there with a link to the fact that he also played with Anaal Nathrakh. He is already listed at Danny Herrera (disambiguation). BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:01, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Per WP:NBAND, Danny is a member of at least 3 notable bands, Napalm Death, Anaal Nathrakh and Venemous Concept. --Jax 0677 (talk) 03:04, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reply. That factoid can easily be mentioned in each of those band articles, in a few words which link to the other bands. This perma-stub adds no information which coukd not be easily accommodated elsewhere, and it adds no navigational benefit. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 10:18, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reply - Again, how do we choose to which article to redirect Herrera? --Jax 0677 (talk) 01:10, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reply. Simple: if we create a redirect, then we redirect to which ever band he is most closely associated with, because that will be most helpful to the reader.
In this case, I find ghits for "Danny Herrera" "Napalm death" and 10,300 ghits for "Danny Herrera" "Anaal Nathrakh" ... so unless somebody has some contrary data, any redirect should point to Napalm Death.
However, I dount that the disambiguated title "Danny Herrera (musician)" is a plausible search term, so I see no need to create a redirect. The entry in Danny Herrera (disambiguation) is quite sufficient. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:53, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep or Merge to Napalm Death as his primary band. We need to judge topics on the sources that exist, not just those that are cited in the article, but having said that, there seems to be little coverage out there beyond mentions of his membership of Napalm Death and Venomous Concept and a little about his drumming style: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. --Michig (talk) 08:22, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reply - Michig, as you said about Bastian Emig, "But if he was only a member of one notable band we would at least leave a redirect to the band. Leaving nothing at all because he's a member of two notable bands doesn't seem to make much sense." So long as two of his three bands have articles, so should he. --Jax 0677 (talk) 22:13, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Napalm Death. factoids about other bands can be mentioned there in a single sentence. Frietjes (talk) 15:21, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
