  • Comment: i don't see, from the evidence presented in the sources, that this person passes nmusicbio PARAKANYAA (talk) 19:21, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Submission with comment states that he passes at least two criteria of WP:NMUSICIAN. However, the references need to reflect that. Is there a secondary reliable source saying he is "one of the prominent musicians?" Also, I do not see the competitions listed as being on the scale required by MUSICIAN but will allow other reviewers to opine. CNMall41 (talk) 21:54, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: You said it does not pass Wikipedia:MUSICBIO; however, I believe it passes #7 (Aaron is one of the prominent musicians representing Savannah, GA and the Southeast jazz scene), and definitely passes #9 (he has won first and second places in major international music competitions). beethoven_freak (talk) 19:32, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
