Please note[edit]

As per WP:NMUSIC: Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases.

Until and unless Avi Kaplan becomes notable in his own right, this article should remain as a redirect to Pentatonix. TechBear | Talk | Contributions 03:30, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article restored[edit]

The artist was previously a redirect to Pentatonix, for Kaplan was not considered notable enough outside of his work with Pentatonix. He now has a solo career, which justifies an article. Or at least, that is my belief. --Hyliad (d), April 30, 2017, 14:02 (CEST)

Personal Life Section[edit]

This probably needs to be removed or improved. The focus is very narrow and isn't sourced sufficiently. Zerostatetechnologies (talk) 04:18, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Zerostatetechnologies, I don't see a problem with the source. However, the information belonged in the Early life section, so I've moved it there, and removed the Personal life heading. Schazjmd (talk) 14:27, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
