[edit] Mark Hosler

Unreferenced bio of a living person, no claim of notability (band member cruft). Loooking at Category:Negativland, same applies to Tim Maloney, David Wills and Don Joyce, and possibly other articles (not-notable songes, etc.).  _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  22:39, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 22:54, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Negativland is quite notable; a founding member is certainly notable as well. Hosler and other members frequently do presentations at universities (including UCSD, Duke School of Law and Yale. I think it's safe to say that Wired magazine counts as a non-trivial source. I do see that Hosler's and the other article could use some expansion and sources.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Merge into Negativland - not enough content to be worth an article. Also fails WP:ATT and WP:BIO. EyeSerene^TALK 18:46, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Negativland. The band is notable, but its members really aren't individually. --Dhartung | Talk 20:31, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
• merge and redirect, unless someone can explain how a member of Negativland is notable outside of Negativland and Negativland-related projects. I'm all in favour of subsections on band members within band articles, though. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad 19:40, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
