Joshua Bartholomew

I am nominating this for deletion because it is a failure of WP:MUSIC. He has only one CD which was written, performed, produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by himself. His only other claim to faim was that he won a local radio contest. --Hetar 06:31, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks Joel, I appreciate it. Although last night I questioned if I would ever attempt another one. Once this is all settled, I think I'll give it another try. Tip #1 for newcomers, use the "Show Preview" button! Halle Leah 03:12, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Comment on Joelmills Wiki is not a crystal ball. It is not the place of Wiki to "catch up before the mainstream press". This singer can use MySpace if he wants to promote his CDs - not Wiki. doktorb words 22:44, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment Halle - it is not about Wiki catching up with technology. It is about the policies of the site - WP:MUSIC and WP:BIO in this case. Joshua may be a very good singer but notable by these standards he may be "only just" but I cannot support this articles inclusion and remain certain that it should be deleted. I am not an admin, I am not an editor with much sway, but I do now that hundreds of singers and bands are put on here like its a "grown up Myspace" and just as many hundreds are shown the door pretty quickly. doktorb words 19:55, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
