[edit] Barry Beckett
This article, about what I presume to be a notable musician, was previously speedily deleted. I created a stub in its place, only to find a prod tag on it, which I removed. I'm going through with a full AfD. Certainly the AMG bio looks promising, and I would think this article should be kept. h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 05:19, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Weak Delete: The only assertion I see is that he worked with notable people, which isn't enough. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:25, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

- Keep: Per the great improvements by the nom. Good work! - Rjd0060 (talk) 06:20, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- I've improved the article now, and a producer who has worked with all of these artists certainly seems notable. He produced Bob Dylan's Slow Train Coming. Check Special:Whatlinkshere/Barry Beckett. He clearly is notable.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 06:08, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Delete I think he has potential, but I'm not sold on it yet.Balloonman (talk) 06:45, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Co-produced "Slow Train Coming" with Jerry Wexler and has worked with any number of big name groups. Instrumental in the 'Muscle Shoals' sound. Strange nomination really. Nick mallory (talk) 00:01, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- I don't actually want it deleted, but I came here for consensus because it was speedily deleted and prodded previously.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 02:34, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- I know, that's why it's strange. It shouldn't have been speedied but it shouldn't be here either. Nick mallory (talk) 05:50, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Well why are editors so keen to speedily delete and PROD things? Give an article a chance.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 06:07, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

- Keep-His notability is more valid than most music bios on here but the article needs cleaning and expanding.---Iconoclast.Horizon (talk) 05:41, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
