What a page history. Consistently questionable. Deleted, refused, AfC fail, AfD-worthy and now we're back here again, with a poorly sourced entry for a WP:GNG failing Youtuber whose only claim to notability is presented as his use of Audacity and MuseScore. It's not enough to get past the line and this time I'm asking you, ladies and gentlemen, to Delete and Salt to boot. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 15:57, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians, Businesspeople, and Ireland. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 15:57, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- I think this person has three different reasons to be considered notable.
- First, his YouTube work, which apart from being popular, is excellently researched and detailed. Second, his status as the spokesperson and leader of MuseScore - the most popular notation application in the world. Third, his recent appointment to the position of spokesperson and leader of Audacity - a very well known and widely used application which (according to the Audacity WIKI) has been downloaded over 200 million times.
- The proposal to delete states that his claim to notability is that he 'uses' MuseScore and Audacity. This is not accurate. He runs both projects. Sylvester Krakow (talk) 23:51, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep: Aside from the sources already in the page (that already mention his important role in two very important music software), a simple Google Scholar search (try "Martin Keary", too) bring up some notable mentions discussing his role in music on social media, modern music encoding, and even a dissertation saying that he coined a new music term [1]. Furthermore, even if this page was deleted, I adamantly oppose SALTing, as a great portion of the sources are super recent, and he seems to be climbing in notability. Why?
