Changes[edit]

Changes to the article have been made to make it sound less like a "memorial," as suggested by Accurizer. It has also been shortened. Additional editing may be done. User:Apace361 18:47, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is any additional cleanup required for this page? Apace361 20:10, 7 June 2006 (UTC) I would like to de-list this article from the cleanup list. Is this OK?Apace361 16:50, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More cleanup is still needed. For more info see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) and Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles. --Hetar 18:06, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changes have been made to the first few paragraphs of this article. Any suggestions on what else should be done? Apace361 16:14, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great improvements! You might consider making the headings the standard (two == instead of three) and renaming them to be more like other biographical articles. There's currently no references section; it would be helpful to have some sources for the information other than the website the material was copied from. It seems like there are a lot of very short paragraphs, perhaps some of those could be combined to make the article flow better? Maybe a section with a list of all his works? Finally, an image would be a big bonus. Thanks for all your hard work on the article. Shell ^babelfish 19:34, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changed headings as suggested above; combined some of shorter paragraphs. My images wouldn't upload (Mac files). Rather than a list of songs, which would be cumbersome, I'll provide a link to the ASCAP page which does list most of them. Apace361 16:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fantastic idea with the ASCAP link; that is an amazing list of songs :) Shell ^babelfish 01:37, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The link for "Collegiate" isn't accurate. It links to the topic "college;" apparently there isn't an entry for the song. I'll remove the link. OK? Apace361 (talk) 03:01, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The ASCAP link no longer connects to the Moe Jaffe song list, but only to their search page ("Ace Title Search"). Apparently their search results time out. To get to the song list, you'd have to click on the search link, choose "writer," and then insert "Moe Jaffe." Suggestions welcome. The list is too long to include in the article itself. However, the biography on earthlink also lists most of his songs.Apace361 (talk) 04:01, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
