Wikipedia:WikiProject Classical music/Contemporary music task force/Articles with issues

BLP composer articles unsourced

edit

Questioned

edit
  • David Cain (composer)  Have found one source but there are lots of people with this name. There must be more given his work...
  • Eric Ross  sources now questioned: see the article's talk page. Indeed, close-paraphrase of one of the "sources"
  • John Palmer (composer)  not sure if he copied us or if we are copyvioing him...
  • Martin Boykan  appears to be copied from Boston Modern Orchestra Project website. Verify?
  • Pär Lindgren  appears to be a close paraphrase of one of the references
  • Robert Washburn  but article appears to be a close-paraphrase of his own website and has been tagged as such

Failed Verification and PROD/AfD etc

  Done

Sourced and verified but still with issues

edit

We might want to consider refining the Notability criteria for our project. Most of the unreferenced BLPs that are—or were before cleanup—in this list were difficult to source using the usual techniques. The AfD of Oscar van Dillen was rather telling in this respect: the sources are not immeadiately useful but when placed in context within the article and with each other tell a much fuller story. Note that Kleinzach pointed to the need highlighted here in that AfD. I'll think about how to handle this and report back on the project talkpage. --Jubilee♫clipman 22:01, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[Articles without obvious issues have been removed from this list entirely]

Mark Engebretson article now (re)created. I'm still putting it together but he does seen pretty notable actually both as a classical sax player and as a contemporary composer. I'll alert you all on the talk page then I've finished it. --Jubilee♫clipman 15:12, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
