[edit] Note from author/editor

I am not affiliated with Bradley Joseph, but am an interested-enough party to try and write a valid concise, informative, and verifiable article about his work and career, and have cited all references.

Please adhere to Wikipedia guidelines for biographies of living persons, i.e. Biographies of living people should be written responsibly, conservatively, and in a neutral, encyclopedic tone, with due regard to the subject's privacy, and as much as possible to cite sources that are credible, neutral, and independent.

[edit] Assessment

This article has come a long way and has really improved in the last few months. Cricket02 asked me to come and look over the article. Here are some notes:

• There is no need for a lot of external links. I removed a few of the links, because they did not provide any valuable information.
• The infobox has a lot of genres in it. Would it be possible to generalize his genre in order to keep it manageable? If more genres want to be discussed in the article that is fine, but we do not want to get too specific if it can be helped.
• The introduction could use a little more information and length (2-3 paragraphs). See WP:LEAD.
• I was a little surprised by the tables' colors. Is there any reason not to use "class=wikitable"? Also, the professional reviews would be best linked to from an album's article page.
• Although the article looks fine with the gaps between paragraphs, it would be best to remove the breaks inbetween them.

This article has the ability to become a good article, – Heaven's Wrath   ^Talk  21:45, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
