world-class reed instrument repair specialists, forensic technicians--who are well-known, even legendary in their own fields but have not been the subject of any books or articles. Most of the Omer
Cordell Ghits are credits only, which (if I understand the WP criteria correctly) do not count as notability.

I did some fixes on the article (never saw or heard of him before today, not my best work). Band-aids, really (no pun intended). I find many images of these bands listed with him as photographer, and links showing he does shoot album covers, and it appears the article is accurate enough. There is a

Creating work for, or used by, notable musicians or companies is not notability in its self since notability is not transferable. Yes, somebody shoots these pictures, but working in your field does not rise above the trivial. There seems to be allot of mixed up comments re:notabilty since we seem to

Perhaps the interview saves it, but there's only one; if others can be found this could be a keep. The fact that someone is well-known and respected in their industry does not in itself equal notability if the person has not been written about. There are people in many businesses--rare coin dealers,

and respected in the industry. I would venture a guess and say he passes the threshold of notability, based on my quick crash course in his work. Maybe barely passes, but that is the best I can muster in short order. The article needs a lot of work, which obviously isn't a reason to delete (and not

I've done a bit of a clean-up of the page. Being in semi-regular contact with Omer, I've seen his recent photography of the mountains of the
Southern Andes, and would say that his article (if given a chance to flourish) will come to show that he will be notable in the future not merely for his work
339:
seems like it's noteable enough. True about him not being THAT knows but it seems like there's a lot of respect for him in the industry as far as who he is and who he's shot. Plus he seems to have two sites www.seventhframe.com and omercordell.com, the 2nd doesn't work. Maybe someone can try
319:
I added new citations for his work with Korg, MTv, plus cites for a book his photography was featured in and a media company. There are more to be made, just don't have time to fill them all in now. I still say this meets notability, even if barely.
189:
why you nom'ed it, of course). I am hoping someone with some actual experience with Omer's work can pipe in and offer better clarity on the issue. If not, I gave my best good faith attempt at establishing the notability, that's all I can do.

is probably the best that can be said at the moment. Unless the article is strengthened further, there is likely to be another debate in the future. It has some breathing space for now.
184:(note the copyright and his name under the images) Now, that said, the question begs: is he notable enough? He has 400+ ghits (not impressive by itself) but it seems he is certainly

KEEP. I've known his work for years now and he's well known in his phylosophy for shooting film. He's talked about frequently when the film subject rises. Keep.
