May well be a hoax. Google turns up nothing whatsoever on this individual. A person of this age with such monumental talent should garner a lot of Googles. It's been suggested that I put this up for a community vote; mine is delete as a hoax. PMDrive1061 (talk) 14:49, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete - nothing on Google, Kartoo or Yahoo; pretty obviously a hoax/vanity insert. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:52, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Take a look at the rationale on the talk page. That sums it up pretty well. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 14:53, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Not a hoax [1] SunCreator (talk) 14:56, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Huh? - all that links shows is that there's an organist (not pianist) named Chris Manners. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:46, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Nothing to establish notability. SunCreator (talk) 15:02, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Insufficient notability, no useful sources found for notability. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 15:10, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Probably not a hoax, but on the article's talk page it is an admitted promotional page for the pianist. Delete for lack of verifiability and spam. If the boy gets some notice in major newspapers/magazines, a new article can be created. -- Kesh (talk) 15:45, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - not a hoax per SunCreator, but doesn't pass notability guidelines or verifiabilty policy. --BelovedFreak 15:57, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- see my note above - SunCreator has found a false positive, I believe. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:46, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, fails Wikipedia:Notability (music). SWik78 (talk) 16:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, I'm not willing to call it a hoax, but am willing to say non-notable. Either way, I did look at a list of past Eisteddfod winners and he isn't on any of the lists of awards that the lead paragraph says he is. Staeiou (talk) 16:26, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Seems like WP:SNOW might apply here. Anyone disagree? SWik78 (talk) 17:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I sure don't. User's first edit out of the box is totally unverifiable, the comment on the talk page is almost laughable and without any proof this kid even exists, I say wrap it up, nothing more to see here, move along. :) --PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:12, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
