Wikipedia:Featured article removal candidates/Jazz

Article is no longer a featured article.

Very old FAC that did not evolve especially well. Current version fails several important criteria:

3.a lead section: Lead is awfully short for an article this lenght
3.b heading structure: Structure is overwhelmed by a history section that is itself weirdly structured. One can only doubt of the placement of subgenres in the History section. Overall, structure is hardly efficient at all.
3.c table of contents: Overwhelm the lead completely, and is generally overly large.
2.b comprehensiveness: Considering the structure, I can't even tell if the article looks comprehensive.
2.c Factual accuracy: A single source and no inline citation.

Remove. Needs all of the above. A request for citations was posted to the talk page in April 2005. Durova 20:26, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Remove Concur. I think it can be improved rather quickly if some dedicated editor takes up the task, and I certainly hope this will happen. –Joke 01:11, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Has the basis of a good article; to be developed.

Remove lacks refs & inline citations. Not our best work. Mikker ^... 17:40, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Remove As above. Not comprehensive: no reference to Django Reinhard and many other European artists. American POV. No reference to Neo Bob Missing audio samples. Compare with blues. Vb 15:13, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
