The notable entries have articles while the others are better discussed in the articles related to the groups of which they are members. Most of the content is unsourced and adds nothing encyclopedic. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:09, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Walter's nom is right. Every cited source is for a musician with an existing article, and there is little else in the article. The notable musicians are already collected at Category:Hillsong musicians. I would be okay with a redirect to Hillsong Music (label) or Hillsong Church, but it seems an unlikely search term, and I realized it's not even totally clear what the existing article is referencing (worship leaders at the Sydney church? any musician from any Hillsong group?).

  • It's entirely unsourced so it's not clear, but it appears to be any Hillsong musician who has led a song on any album that was released by Hillsong. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:09, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge into Hillsong Music (label)Keep - the nominator hasn't given a sufficient reason for deletion but agree the article is better placed within the label article. Bookscale (talk) 23:16, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep -- This is a typical list article, of a kind that has long been acceptable in WP. It is useful to have the information gathered together, distinct from the linked "main" articles. Hillsong Church has been very influential in Christian Worship music. I have to oppose merger to Hillsong Music (label), because that article is already large enough. However a short section should be added to the label article, drawing attention to the separate musicians article (linked by a "main" template). Peterkingiron (talk) 11:42, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - the size of the main article is a fair point. Bookscale (talk) 21:43, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Most of the sourced content is discussed in album articles, not articles on the subjects. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:09, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as a valid split from a notable article that is too large for re-merging Atlantic306 (talk) 14:44, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Its a valid list article. Just rename it to List of Hillsong musicians. Dream Focus 15:07, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - I am undecided, but if the article is kept the title should be changed to "List of Hillsong Church musicians" or something similar, which will indicate that it is meant to be a list article that hopefully follows the rules for that article type. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:55, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
