| Further the guidelines on composers that are likely to apply to him are listed below. It is not at all clear that he meets the bar here. From the info I have, the only criteria he may meet is #1 for in the first group, and it is not actually clear that "soundtrack for DBZ" is a notable composition. for a TV show soundtrack to qualify as notable, it would need to be something often written about. For example, if a show is discussed for its music almost as often as for its plot, then sure the soundtrack is probably notable. I don't think that actually applies here. And even if so, if he is only really known for one work (which pretty much is the case), that would generally be merged with the article for that work. So he could be mentioned in the "Sound Track of DBZ" article if one existed, or the "soundtrack" section of the main DBZ article. ------ Composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists, may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria: 1. Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition.
2. Has written musical theatre of some sort (includes musicals, operas, etc.) that was performed in a notable theatre that had a reasonable run, as such things are judged in their particular situation, context, and time.
3. Has had a work used as the basis for a later composition by a songwriter, composer or lyricist who meets the above criteria.
4. Has written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers.
5. Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter or lyricist that meets the above criteria.
6. Appears at reasonable length in standard reference books on their genre of music. Where possible, composers or lyricists with insufficient verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article should be merged into the article about their work. When a composer or lyricist is known for multiple works, such a merger may not be possible. --- Composers and performers outside mass media traditions may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria: 1. Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture. 2. Has composed a number of notable melodies, tunes or standards used in a notable music genre. 3. Is cited in reliable sources as being influential in style, technique, repertory or teaching for a particular music genre. 4. Is cited by reliable sources as having established a tradition or school in a particular music genre. 5. Has been listed as a significant musical influence on musicians or composers who meet the above criteria. |
