Does not seem notable Dave 18:51, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. notable for receiving credit for their debut album's third track, the hit "Knife Edge".? No. Punkmorten 21:42, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Clearly meets WP:BAND, under "For composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists: Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a musician or ensemble that qualifies [as notable]". Emerson, Lake & Palmer are notable, ergo Fraser, who has written lyrics for them, is notable. Bondegezou 15:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Bondegezou is right, Richard Fraser is a composer (at least according to ELP). "Knife Edge" is a notable song from a notable group, and the fact that a non-member received credit for it merits some explanation. ChildOfTheMoon83 18:32, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Fraser also contributed lyrics to a second ELP album, Pictures at an Exhibition. Bondegezou 20:18, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Right again. Funny that I didn't see that, as I have a vinyl PAAE sitting in my room. Sure enough, on the sleeve it says "Lyrics: Lake/Fraser". If this isn't a compelling argument to keep the article I don't know what is. ChildOfTheMoon83 20:30, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Notable per above. RickReinckens 08:18, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Meets wp:band per above. Catchpole 11:19, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
