[edit] Paul archibald

Vanity (article was created by the article's subject), promotional and, despite the breathless prose, non-notable. The guy is a trumpet player in an orchestra. Good on 'im, but it's not worthy of an encyclopedia article. Ξxtreme Unction|_{yakkity yak} 06:16, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Keep as passes WP:MUSIC, in that he's won major competitions. Article is, admittedly, a vanity piece however and needs attention. Also, it's a copyright violation of [1], so needs rewrite. --Oscarthecat 09:53, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Something very odd about that major competition he won, the "Toulon Prix de Concours". Based on google search for the competition, it seems only one person has ever won it, Paul Archibald, and all the search results look pretty much word-for-word like this article. Hmmmm.
