Trombonist

Hi, thanks for commenting. The thing is that I'm not too sure how much relevance a "List of famous trombonists" has in an article on trombonists. We already have List of jazz trombonists and List of classical trombonists, so we seem to be alright as far as trombonist-related lists are concerned. What is more interesting - and more encyclopedic and more NPOV - is some of the social history of trombonists: what sort of people played the trombone when, etc: where the world's best trombone players have come from, who are the particularly historically-renowned trombonists, what composers have played the trombone - that sort of thing.

Any, I hope that this gives you some ideas for the article. I certainly think any expansion of the article should go in this direction, rather than just a dictionary definition and a list of "famous" trombonists. The real problem with such a list is that whatever definition of famous you use will be your definition, and hence original research, which is not permitted. It is not impossible to make NPOV lists with POV sounding titles, but it is very difficult. Best to avoid them altogether. Anyway, I hope that this helps.
