While I still believe the James Renald page should stand on its own, I wouldn't entirely dispute moving his profile onto the Sky page -- even though a large portion of his career was spent outside Sky. If your recommendation is to do that, someone should handle a biography on Antoine who is familiar with his work on Quebec television and as a chef. It may also be a consideration to incorporate a biography on Anastasia into that page as well, and perhaps even consider removing Karl Wolf's page and adding him to Sky's profile as well? To me, this seems like a lot of fuss with some very shaky standards for who qualifies for the Sky page and who doesn't.
As far as I'm concerned, Renald's life stands on its own. Whether or not he's substantive enough to merit his own page is a matter of opinion. Outside of Canada, Sky might not seem like a big deal, but their debut album was considered one of the most popular Canadian albums of the late 1990s, had numerous hit singles, and is culturally familiar, even aside from Renald's other work. The lack of citation from other sources is simply because music coverage in Canada is pretty sparse with only a few active music journalists at major outlets. Renald's death was also reported on this blog, but I felt it was not accurate enough to be considered a substantial source: http://coolopolis.blogspot.com/2019/02/star-montreal-singer-songwriter-james.htmlDigitalkidd13 (talk) 05:10, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
