- Delete: clearly non-notable. Couldn't find independent reliable sources that didn't cover him in passing as a "producer". PK650 (talk) 21:00, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. First off, he has never been knighted - sir is a campy nickname he uses, like "Sir" Ari Gold or "Empress" Panzi. Secondly, as far as public sources go, he's never been a professional, full-time musician. Thirdly, this is just a run of the mill producer and band manager, which articles we uniformly delete and a change in that consensus is not predicted. For these three reason, the subject fails our standards for musicians. Coverage online is about the "vault" of music he is connected with, not that he's created, and in any case only mentions him in passing. Bearian (talk) 16:45, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- P.S. I acknowledge my error in !voting otherwise in the AfD five years ago. See, you can teach an old dog new tricks. Bearian (talk) 16:47, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: The passing coverage in industry publications of ventures involving the subject are insufficient to establish his biographical notability. Past involvement in signing Katherine Jenkins and subsequent ventures with Simon Napier-Bell do not provide notability. I am seeing nothing to overturn the 2014 AfD consensus on the prior version.
