Hi User:SwisterTwister, I'm hoping you can give me some guidance as I'm surprised to hear this subject does not meet notability requirements, or that your searches turned up nothing. Here are some of the secondary sources I found:

Secondary sources devoted exclusively to work the subject's done, his career, etc.:

"Best of" lists he's been named to:

Q&A with him:

http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2015/12/30/461484518/a-rational-conversation-rembert-browne-on-music-in-2015-even-during-the-hard-tim

And more secondary sources that invoke his work:

There are still more mentions out there but since this is already more than two dozen secondary sources taking note of his work, I'll pause there. I realize not all of them are currently cited on the entry--would love your guidance on how it could be improved--but was that the only issue? I'm really surprised such extensive notice in so many reliable secondary sources would not meet WP:BASIC. Can you advise? Thanks much. Innisfree987 (talk) 04:05, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Update to add that I've made some revisions to the entry, including adding a half dozen of these references that hadn't previously been cited on the page--would be grateful for feedback on the updated version. Thanks. Innisfree987 (talk) 17:12, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps WP:NETPOP and WP:JOURN could help.
