[edit] Wooden Thomas

Non-notable artist/musician. Most notable claim is having published an album in 2004. Not much on google - a search for "wooden thomas" is pretty much all about the Tank Engine. Article is also POV. It has been around since July 2005 which is why I didn't just prod it. The articles that link to here are Casandra Stark which is tagged for cleanup and verification, and Talk:Pine Barrens (New Jersey) which only references in regard to how to format the Pine Barrens page.

• DO NOT DELETE --User: Waken 20:14, 20 March 2006 (UTC) This artist/musician is indeed relevant. He has produced a number of albums. The most recent was a live album, Dressed to Spill in 2006 at VIP in Garwood, NJ. Also, WFMU radio dj, William Berger has recent posts regarding this artist in his blog. Wooden Thomas's folk music falls into the Outsider genre, along with the likes of psychedelic folk pioneer, Syd Barrett, founding member of Pink Floyd and Jandek. At the least, the author should be notified of the votes for deletion so that the article could be updated. The Pine Barrens reference has been corrected.
