Not sure whether a speedy would have been more appropriate? There is absolutely no notability here, and the author seems to have a COI. ♪Tempo di Valse ♪ 15:15, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Googling around, it doesn't appear that Burswood Guitars themselves are notable, so I find it difficult to believe a list of people using them would be, and at least for now, neither of the people listed in the article appear to meet the notability guidelines. It would be sort of pushing it to speedy this as A7 as that's for people, organizations or web content. However, I think a WP:SNOW closure looms in the future.

- Speedy A7. I see no reason why lists of people should be treated differently to articles on people. Neither of the people on this list appears to be notable. The criterion used to select them is not notable. JulesH (talk) 21:50, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- KEEP/MOVE/MERGE: I spent some time tracking this down... Burswood is a chinese made guitar brand, they produce low-cost guitars & their most notable product, at least in north american terms, is probably the guitar model they produce for this guy: Esteban's infomercials. the mention of those infomercials should probably be expanded within his bio-article, as they are a significant part of his fame/notability. something about burswood should be mentioned there, as they produce the guitars. not quite sure if burswood should have an article page of their own or not, but they should be mentioned in lists of guitar manufacturers, products, etc.; info about them is relevant to somebody studying guitar manufacturers/makes/brands, models, etc. since the user list only has 2 names in it, perhaps we could find someplace to tuck it in, rather than simply erase? if nothing else, please cc it to my usersection? guitars aren't my specialty, & i have a long list of other things to do on here, but there must be someplace appropriate to insert the info, eventually, & i'd rather it wasn't lost. i might tackle esteban's infomercial guitar fame... lol Lx 121 (talk) 11:48, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I think to have a list of people who use this manufacturer's guitars, we need to have at least 2 (preferably _many_ more) notable people who use them (and where we have a reliable, independent source that comments on this). So, who else should be on the list? Because at present we only have one name, which isn't valid content for a list, plus two others who aren't notable and hence should not be on the list (per WP:SAL).

- Delete - WP:NOT. Next thing we'll have is a list article on people who have seen a person whose played a Burswood guitar. I'd also say WP:SNOW here, I don't think anyone aware of policies will have an issue with it being deleted. Should have been prodded in my opinion. Matty (talk) 23:25, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
