This pianist may become notable in the future. But for now the article fails WP:MUSICBIO (the competitions are not "major") and the WP:GNG (see Google news archive search for relevant period which does not demonstrate any nontrivial coverage). Not that WP:COI is an argument for deletion (it isn't), but it is worth noting that the article was created by a user who claims to be the subject's father.

• Delete A very talented young man. But I don't think he's established notability as a musician yet that is sufficient to meet our guidelines. ChildofMidnight (talk) 22:26, 11 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment--the kid played at Carnegie Hall, and that's not enough? Look, Miles Davis may have played there, but he never got to perform for Martha Stewart! I sense a conspiracy. Drmies (talk) 17:06, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess when you compare articles to Claw Boys Claw and the articles on their albums you're starting with the lowest conceivable standard for notability. But are you suggesting that everyone who has ever performed at Carnegie Hall and on Martha Stewart is notable? Perhaps you can add that to the GNG guidelines... If he had appeared on Lingo (Dutch game show) that would be a whole different story. ChildofMidnight (talk) 19:36, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
