Andrew Hollander is a composer and songwriter whose puffery-filled article is essentially a list of credits that are better left to IMDB. The only sources cited include a brief mention of Hollander or do not mention him at all.

Hollander has received no significant independent media attention. He was the composer for a notable film Waitress, but there is no indication that his work was notable. He has co-written or produced songs but there is no indication these songs were particularly notable, even if the songs' albums or performers might have had some press. All told, I don't believe anything in the article satisfies WP:ENT ("significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions").

In the past, there has been concern about conflicts of interest in edits to this article, since they were often by single-purpose or promotional accounts. One of the editors created the page of Hollander's wife Dana Parish, which I am also recommending be deleted. A recent dubious editor is AmySEOPro (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log). Another single purpose account Magic4950 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) made numerous edits and inappropriately marked many of them as minor. There were also concerns about copyright violations. There does not seem to be much interest in this article by authentic editors. Given the above, I propose deletion of this article.

Hi, All of the information on Andrew Hollander's page is accurate and current. I fail to see the issue. Andrew's page follows the same format as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lissauer.

It most certainly is, the issue is that there isn't enough coverage to warrant an article here. Oaktree b (talk) 23:00, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Everything on this page is well referenced and documented. Andrew Hollander has worked on many well known and high profile projects, including writing songs for Celine Dion and Carly Rae Jepsen, and working with the Chainsmokers. The suggestion for deletion is clearly a personal attack based on the language uses and has no basis. Andrew Hollander's page is perfectly legitimate and should remain on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Magic4950 (talkcontribs) 20:32, 29 August 2022 (UTC) Magic4950 (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

There is no personal attack, we can't find substantial coverage in reliable sources. Not everyone gets a wikipedia article just for working with famous people. They have to have been covered in a non-trivial way in reliable, neutral, sources of some substance. Oaktree b (talk) 23:00, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
