  • Wow! What a mess this article is -- It has no footnotes, references or citations, is typed in a horrific, unencyclopedic format and has no notability! THIS SHOULD BE DELETED! Robin Redford 18:37, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
  • No, this article absolutely should NOT be deleted. It was a very acceptable Start-Class article, important to this WikiProject, until spurious edits appeared beginning in September 2007. This article should be reverted so it will reappear as it did on 8 April 2007 by User:Cydebot. (This is a request for an editor to do so.) Charvex 09:11, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I agree. It was mangled in a series of edits starting on 9-4-07 and appears to be unsalvageable in the current version as well as all the older versions in September. I'm reverting the article to the version of 2007-04-08 per Charvex. The article still needs reliable sources, but Jack Wrangler is notable. — Becksguy 09:26, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I replaced the prod tag, and two others, since they disappeared due to my reversion (although I removed messy article as a reason.) I didn't replace all the tags since there was some duplication. However, anyone is free to replace or add tags, of course. I'm not contesting the prod at this time, although the 5 day timer gets reset. That should be enough time to find sources. — Becksguy —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 10:01, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I added three inline citations, including an autobiography published by St. Martin's Press, a well regarded publisher and a reference to his Broadway work. I think there is now enough to establish notability, although it does need more sources. The Prod nominator referred to WP:OR, and I can see his reasoning, so this does need clean up. However, needs improvement != needs deletion. Prod contested and prod tag removed today. Unencyclopedic tag also removed, but citation tag remains, as it should. — Becksguy 01:22, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
