The result of the discussion was keep. Although I see no reason why anyone would be directed to Wikipedia:Notability/Noticeboard since it is currently inactive. Ricky81682 (talk) 08:45, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Does this page pass GNG? Old stale draft. Legacypac (talk) 16:05, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - draft is non-promotional and obviously directed toward an encyclopedic purpose. May fail notability guidelines (although it does have at least one independent source), but this is irrelevant in userspace. Deleting a good-faith draft with real info for staleness makes no sense. If it must be removed from the stale userspace drafts category, adding to a maintenance category or blank+template are far better options as they take no admin time, allow draft to be picked back up in the future, and are less disruptive for user.

- its in a maintence category now - stake user drafts. I don't feel comfortable blanking it if the topic passes GNG. Your continued Keep votes with a refusal address GNG are not helpful. If not deleted here I will promote to mainspace on the strength of the Keep votes. Legacypac (talk) 18:50, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
- How do you feel uncomfortable blanking it, but not uncomfortable deleting it? In any case, my first preference is to Keep. And you know very well that I am suggesting moving it to a new, more informative maintenance category (e.g. Category:Stale drafts with unclear potential) to get it out of stale user drafts category. I'm not addressing GNG because it is irrelevant in userspace. Emphatically, I do not advocate promoting this article to mainspace in its present state - I am not arguing for that. Any decision to move it is yours alone and should happen only because you believe is is ready for mainspace; other motive would be WP:POINT. A2soup (talk) 19:26, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

- Wrong forum. The question appears suitable for the Wikipedia:Notability/Noticeboard. It is not productive to ask the question hypothetically, the page is not in mainspace. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:44, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
- With so much promotion, as is expected with a self-publishing musician/composer/arranger, asking whether he meets the GNG as a very big ask. It requires considerable research, and then the real test is done at AfD. The name generates a lot of ghits, including reviews, so it is not an easy "no". Best thing is to leave it alone until a subject-interested editor works on it. Finding independent sources that discuss the subject directly is much easier for someone who cares about the subject. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:49, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
