Ken Serio

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article about a drumer who IMO fails to have notability. It was created in 2008 by someone who has no other Wikipedia edits. The article claims that Serio "has performed with artists like...." but gives no detail or references. His recorded work, according to the article, consists of self-released albums and session work for no one sufficiently notable to have a Wikipedia article. Article was tagged for speedy deletion on 7 June 2008 but this was declined less than three hours later with the comment "I don't think this qualifies for speedy delete. Take it to afd, if you must." So, here it is. Emeraude (talk) 13:09, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this article has no 3rd party sources to back up the clames of notability. --Jeffrd10 (talk) 13:17, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The article does have one reference which is an album review. A single album review in one magazine is not sufficient to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 18:08, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - However, he does have some mention in third party sources and may meet the notability threshold in future.
