- Weak delete - Borders on nn imo. Information helpful on deciding the status of the article has not been forthcoming despite the 10-day+ waiting period we had. Delete without prejudice to well sourced re-creation following WP:BIO guidelines. --Gurubrahma 05:43, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete/userfy - Per above arguments. Wickethewok 15:38, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, even with this body of work his notability isn't really established. Claims that he's "young & upcoming" don't convince me; nor do the weak Ghits. HumbleGod 23:58, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete/Userfy - It's as simple as: if he wants to start an article listing his work, it's a User page. -Seidenstud 05:44, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Young and upcoming. --Ezeu 03:05, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
