I fail to see how this pianist is remarkable. None of his discography appears to have Wikipedia articles, the tone isn't correct for Wikipedia, and I'm not even sure if it's a BLP because no life span info is given. Nathan2055^talk 18:38, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Interwikis now added. Article needs cleaned and referenced better but there are books such as Alyn Shipton in the "Continuum encyclopedia of popular music of the world" where the subject is discussed as a notable practitioner. AllyD (talk) 16:40, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Note: It looks better, I think with a lot of cleanup it could be converted into a good stub. --Nathan2055^talk 16:49, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

* Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Jazz notified. AllyD (talk) 18:13, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: According to a discussion on my talk page with the creator, it appears the article was created against the policies WP:CITE, WP:BLP, and WP:COI. I still think the article may have future, but it needs massive edits. --Nathan2055^talk 20:40, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Withdraw: There have been massive updates since the nomination, so I think it should be kept. --Nathan2055^{talk - review} 20:10, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
