Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joseph Patrick Moore

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Keep but it does need substantial cleanup. The discussion makes it clear that this is an experienced jazz bassist who has worked and toured with many other artists. You can buy his albums at Tower Records. For a jazz artist celebrity and commercial success is not a good measure, so we shouldn't expect to see him in the charts, though his download success in this month's emusic.com suggests some modest success. There are numerous arguments for deletion below because this is a vanity article, but this isn't compatible with Wikipedia policy. We don't delete such articles, we clean them up. I'm sure that the current editors will be only too happy to help us do that once they learn how Wikipedia works. I think BlueValour puts it best: "it needs someone to copyedit the crap out of it." --Tony Sidaway 00:25, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
