"Singer/songwriter" that doesn't appear on allmusic.com, vanity. Wyllium 19:45, 2004 Nov 13 (UTC)

Keep. There's a perhaps more notable Thomas Perry, a novelist [1] [2] and an eventual article about him would probably have to end up disambiguating the German singer the article is presently about anyway. Past record deal with BMG sure suggests notability; absence from allmusic.com just that he wasn't marketed much or at all in the large English-language countries. But he sings so much in English that I wouldn't be comfortable just consigning him away to the German Wikipedia. Samaritan 21:20, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Keep. Getting a major deal is notability enough. allmusic.com has many gaps, and really is not a useful criterion regarding anyone not famous in the US - David Gerard 19:48, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
