[edit] Tim Brickley

• Delete, Artist is not notable, a google search revealed only 973 hits many of which were not unique and were listings of local indianapolis bars where he was playing. A guided Lexus Nexus search of all music reviews going back to 1979 yielded zero hits as did much broader lexus nexus searchs of all entertainment articles and all available Indiana news sources. Also of the 12 criteria for musician notibilty the only possible criteria he meets was the claim that he won an Emmy in 1998 yet the source for this comes from his bio on his booking agents website while a search for Tim Brickley in Emmy awards database (http://www.emmys.org/awards/2006pt/history.php) reveals no hits nor does the IMDB entry for the 1998 emmys(http://www.imdb.com/Sections/Awards/Emmy_Awards/1998)Xpendersx 00:06, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. I was going to vote keep because of the emmy, but it seems to be fake. Co-nominate his two albums:
  • Be Apart
  • Everything That Ever Was

• Delete. The Emmy seems to be a regional emmy award.[1]. Here's an article that dicusses Brickley's regional emmy [2]. So, not a "fake," but not an Emmy Award either, not even close. Brickley's myspace page calls it an "Emmy Award," so he's buying in to this bit of puffery himself, although he wisely leaves the name of the documentary he won the award for out of his own page. "Hoosier Hoops: The Golden Era" seems very nn, 6 ghits for the exact phrase, 4 of them Brickley references, counting the Wikipedia article. Darkspots 15:16, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all due to lack of notability. Good work sniffing out the so-called "Emmy Award." --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 16:31, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
