Notability is not inherited. I do not see this individual passing WP:N and see no reliable sources indicating notability. Basket of Puppies 19:46, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The information in the first portion of the article is inherited notability. The second part is that which makes Jon Howard notable (songwriting credits as an individual). Please take note of this. --Jaunsk (talk) 20:03, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep Due to his involvement in two wholly separate bands with clearly established notability; it makes merging the information difficult. I expect sources could be found in places like christian rock publications. -Verdatum (talk) 23:05, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and improve: According #6WP:BAND, a musician is notable if it "is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles". Jon Howard played in two notable bands: Dizmas and Stellar Kart. So, I think it is sufficient to keep the article. However, the article is too little and has nothing about Jon Howard independently of his bands. I suggest to keep and expand it.Victor Silveira (talk) 03:51, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per Mr. Silveira. Meets notability requirements. Ikip (talk) 02:49, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
