The result was speedy keep. Has sources, being a stub is no reason to delete (non-admin closure) Terrillja _talk 23:27, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Stub. Unsourced. Tried to CSD but tag was removed by another editor. Cssiitcic (talk) 21:13, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

• Keep - Unsourced is not a valid reason for deletion, neither is an article being a stub. Jenuk1985 | Talk 21:18, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Keep - The article is now sourced and it obviously meets notability requirements for WP:Music.Nrswanson (talk) 21:22, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Keep A stub is no reason to AfD, it's clearly not speediable as there is an assertion of notability in the principle cello claim. A quick google search verifies this, and I think principle in an internationally renowned orchestra is a good indication of notability. As per WP:BIO A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. I've will add some refs to the article. --GedUK  21:24, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Keep references have been added, subject meets relevant notability guidelines. —Snigbrook 21:41, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Keep. (I was the one who removed the CSD tag.) I feel he is well documented in secondary, reliable sources as a notable musician. - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 21:45, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Keep. He meets the requirements of WP:Music. Also see these results in Google News all dates. [1]. Note that the proper course of action with an unsourced article is to look for sources rather than putting it up for deletion, especially given his description as a principal cellist with 2 highly notable orchestras. In this case they are very easily found. I also find it completely bizarre that this article was nominated for a speedy delete within 1 minute of it having been created. This AfD is totally inappropriate as well. Voceditenore (talk) 22:02, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Snow keep. Why are we dragging this out?—S Marshall ^Talk/_Cont 22:09, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
