Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ed Wiley, Jr.
Delete''' (edit conflict)Due to  violations of the copyright of the subject's website. The subject seems to be a notable jazz musician, with several CDs for sale on Amazon and his bio at Allmusicguide http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Ed%20Wiley%2C%20Jr.:1927282078:page=biography;_ylt=AlxypWgdLTsauw9WXB1V2AZUvQcF;_ylu=X3oDMTBudjI1N2xwBF9zAzg0MzkzMzAwBHNlYwNhcnRmZWF0 which substantiates the basic info in the article. But the article is a copyright violation from the artist's website. The Wikipedia article says: "It was in this Gulf crucible of Houston that Wiley absorbed the blues, gospel, rhythm and blues influences that coalesced to form the big, aggressive and bluesy“Texas Tenor” sound popularized by saxophonists 1, Arnett Cobb, Buddy Tate and others." Wiley's website http://www.edwileyjr.com/ says: "It was in this Gulf crucible that Wiley absorbed the blues, gospel, rhythm and blues influences that coalesced to form the "Texas Tenor" sound popularized by saxophonists Illinois Jacquet, Arnett Cobb, Buddy Tate and others." I did not compare them sentence for sentence. Besides being at least in part a copyvio, the article has zero references, while alluding to interviews with the subject in Downbeat, an important music magazine, without stating the details of the publication date, article title, or author.  and  require that such information come from reliable and verifiable sources, and not just the say-so of an anonymous Wikipedia editor. I encourage the creator to provide references for where he got the details in the article, or for others to stub it down to what they can find references for. An article about the musician could be created with references and satisfy  but this one fails  and . OK stub. Someone with a good online puiblicatin subscription could probably add material from the claimed Downbeat interview and other sources
