Clean-up

Due to the recent disclosure by the subject of this article, much of this article's content is inadmissible. I will be heavily editing the article and removing any non-notable or promotional / resume style content, dead-links, primary sources, etc. Please bring any comments or concerns to this section during this period of clean-up. Thank you. Maineartists (talk) 12:44, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed all un-sourced content from the article. If what has been removed can be sourced without a direct link to the subject, please re-insert. However, in editing this subject, the question of notability and qualifications for inclusion at WP under WP:NMUSIC came up time and time again. The sources of claim seem to stem from one single source: ISINA. Which is a magazine (here: ISINA) that one can join and in turn promotes you as an artist to be seen and heard. This is not a secondary source in the music industry that reviews an artist such as Rolling Stone, Billboard (magazine), etc. ; Reverbnation is also primary to the industry. Gunther has very little exposure, coverage, reviews provided here as sources for a BLP at WP. His album Fall Into The Open should not have a WP page. YouTube & Facebook links for commercials and campaigns, IMDB for one small unnamed role on the history channel, fame by association (constantly listing famous celebrities to those the BLP has not worked with) - all have made this inclusion speculative for notability. I have tried to keep what was sourced and notable; but even this content raises questions. A quick Google search only produced WP, ISINA, YouTube, ReverbNation, Spotify, Twitter, Linkedin ... nothing secondary; and all social media or promotional in content that an artist has the ability to produce themselves. I would nominate this page for AfD. Maineartists (talk) 21:42, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
