Keep The artist is the subject of numerous non-trival published works, has released at least two albums under his own name, and three others as one half of the duo
Alex & Nilusha. He has toured Australia and internationally both as a solo artist and as a member of numerous ensembles. Consequently passes WP:MUSICBIO. The article certainly has problems: I've put a WP:COI template on it: it suffers from both non-neutral tone and original research. Whole sections are difficult to read, comprising of
WP:Laundry lists. These are reasons to carefully edit the article but not to delete it. If this passes AfD I will continue to edit it and attempt to get it into a more acceptable form. However, I might need help if the article's creator continues disruptive editing.

Delete - The keep vote by
User:Shaidar cuebiyar above makes valid points, but the "numerous non-trival published works" are primarily about things outside of Pertout's individual works, such as events in which he was a participant, or his later act
Alex & Nilusha which has its own article. As an individual, almost all available sources mention him peripherally as being present at a recording or concert. Meanwhile, some apparently useful sources already in the article do not mention him at all, such as "La Nueva Canción: The New Song Movement in South America" (currently footnote #3) which actually describes a larger scene that he may or may not fit into. I can find no
reliable and
non-trivial reviews for his own albums except for a couple about his 1993 album. He has a lot of listings, but those sources are almost never about him in a fashion that bestows
independent notability. He's an accomplished journeyman who deserves to be mentioned in other people's articles, but there is not enough for an article about him specifically. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (
