Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. Contested prod claimed that the drummer meets MUSICBIO No. 6, "a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles", but prominence here means GNG and that is still not met.

Keep Meets WP:MUSICBIO #6 with Saxon and Motorhead. The history of all these bands is covered in multiple books. The word "prominence" is explained in the footnotes, and he meets that definition even if he doesn't meet your imaginative attempt to redefine words. --Colapeninsula (talk) 08:48, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- WHere are the extended interviews. MUSIBIO does not get to win over GNG. The subject is simply assumed to be notable. It must be proven. Walter Görlitz (talk) 13:28, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep has significant coverage in reliable sources books and magazines as shown in a google book search for "Pete Gill" Saxon . The average age of a webpage is only 100 days so web coverage of a great many older musicians and their work is very light unless they are superstars Atlantic306 (talk) 18:24, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Atlantic306: I just saw this. Care to list a few here? I see mentions of him, but no in-depth coverage. The same with a Google search. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:32, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
