Phillip Funtulis[edit]

A musician . . . or anyway a math student whose own web page offers two tracks of his music. See also Image:Phil_funtulis.jpg. -- Hoary 05:11, 2005 May 28 (UTC)

  • Keep. Phillip is somewhat known among a group of people in the Warren, Ohio and Kent, Ohio areas. Given this and the fact that his music is somewhat unique, this article ought not be deleted. .... added at 05:09, 2005 May 28 by 65.25.107.137
  • Delete. Non-notable, non-verifiable, bordering on nonsense at times. ESkog 05:12, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. He could be somebody someday, but.. uh.. not today. -- Hadal 05:19, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. College student vanity, probably a joke on Mr. Funtulis. Article does not assert notability. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 05:20, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Actually, I know of phil (not personally)and I can attest to the validity of this article. But completely ignoring my previous point, just because nobody here can personally justify it doesn't mean that it is not factual and doesn't have it's place within the wikipedia. I doubt anyone here knows everything on the wikipedia -- that alone does not justify the removal of the article. After all the whole point of an encyclopedia is to provide information to others. 65.24.57.160 05:34, 28 May 2005 (UTC)..... added at 05:26, 2005 May 28 by 65.24.57.160[reply]
    • Please sign your comments. This is easy; just hit the twiddle key four times: ~~~~. Thank you. -- Hoary 05:32, 2005 May 28 (UTC)
  • Delete. No signs of compliance with Wikimusic Project guidelines. Capitalistroadster 05:29, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Wikimusic is a proposal for a new project. Could you produce said guidelines? ... posted at 05:31, 2005 May 28 by 65.24.57.160
  • Keep Because Phil is indeed a great, great man. 152.163.101.5 05:37, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. No evidence that shows this person passes WP:MUSIC. Thus, it is another vanity article of a non-notable college student. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 05:42, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Having read the WP:MUSIC guidelines, I find fault with them. However, I am aware that my concerns are better placed on the WP:MUSIC page itself, I will outline them here at this moment: These guidelines are too strong and only promote the dissemination of information about musicians in the mainstream. Not in an entirely direct response to phil's article, however, the wikipedia should be a source of obscure and less well known information. While the article about phil may seem unnoteable it is incomplete as phil has the noteworthy talent of being able to compose and perform long and complex canons on the fly as improv when cued by an audience member.65.24.57.160 05:54, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • You're very welcome to state your disagreements with WP:MUSIC on the "discussion" aka "talk" page accompanying that page. Note also WP:V. -- Hoary 06:04, 2005 May 28 (UTC)
        • I meant to imply that I would later post to the WP:MUSIC discussion page65.24.57.160 06:31, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        • I agree with WP:V, however, I do believe that there is more to fact verification than the hasty voting of those here.65.24.57.160 06:31, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Agree with others that this smacks of vanity and promotion. Note that two anon votes to 'keep' come from similar IP addresses. The webpage hosted at/by 65.25.107.137 may be of interest: [1], suggesting a personal agenda pushing for this content to be included. Tobycat 06:10, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Performing a Trace Route on the IPs in question will reveal that one is assigned to a computer in Columbus, Ohio, while the other is assigned to a computer in Northeast Ohio. The similarities are merely the result of using the same ISP and these IPs are clearly not in the same local area; however, they are close enough to be influenced by the music of Phillip Funtulis. 65.25.107.137 06:21, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I find it only fitting the maintainer of phil's homepage be the one to create his article. This is not suspicious at all but is instead akin to having an expert in neurology write the page on brain surgery.65.24.57.160 06:24, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and teach this guy how to spell his name ;) — Philip (one "L!") Welch 06:22, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Knowing Mr. Funtulis, his first name is spelled with two Ls.
  • Keep This new version is much better. 131.123.35.14 08:16, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete patent vanity--Sophitus 10:11, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Complete vanity. Doesn't pass WP:MUSIC guidelines. And, for Pete's sake, remove that photo of WP... Sarg 13:48, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Total vanity. "Phillip Funtulis" returns no results from Google, either. Bennie Noakes 15:50, 29 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oy, vanity squared. Delete. --Calton | Talk 05:56, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
