- Delete a non-notable music composer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:38, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- This person very recently became more notable. Odd that the article doesn't mention the current debacle, as the article was created after the debacle broke. Just this week Mauer became notorious for having what appears to be some sort of public breakdown where Mauer filed DMCA take-downs against publishers of games she'd created music for, and every youtuber who had played or reviewed those games.

- That said, That's really the only news coverage this person has gotten, and it'd be tough to cover all this without turning the article into a hatchet job. ApLundell (talk) 20:39, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. A momentary drama-bomb doesn't necessarily equate to long-term notability. Perhaps it will, and maybe at that time this article could be resubmitted, but this seems like one of those single-incident-notability cases that, as far as I'm aware, generally haven't been held up as meeting WP:BIO notability criteria. I'd particularly point to WP:PSEUDO. This doesn't really satisfy any of the bullet points raised there. - Vianello (Talk) 20:54, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete, I agree with Vianello. It might be wise to delete this soon instead of waiting for the customary seven days. The Alex Mauer drama is still growing, and the article comes up near the top of the Google results. Really, I'm pleasantly surprised that it hasn't already attracted a million first-time editors eager to dole out Internet Justice. ApLundell (talk) 21:22, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- Merge, suggested target being YouTube Copyright Issues: The person is really only notable for their recent actions involving the copyright dispute outside of niche groups. The issue itself seems notable to discuss on a different article; the person does not seem to reach that, though. --204.106.255.44 (talk) 04:20, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
