Talk:List of jazz saxophonists

message: Pinning styles to decades like tails on a donkey is not a method of writing history. Mark this progress with specific artists' contributions (which do not occur neatly in 1930, 1940, etc.) — let's more than just their names next to meaningless stylistic categories.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.131.132.174 (talk) 07:28, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

message: Lakis Diakogiannis is not appropriate for the list of jazz saxophonists as there is no corresponding article in Wikpedia. As a result of this, his name has been removed until such time he is considered noteworthy enough for someone to create such an article.Paul210 (talk) 17:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

message: I see Frank Basile has been added to the list.Perhaps someone can create a Wikipedia  article on him to confirm his notability. Paul210 (talk) 22:30, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Tom Tallitsch has been added to this list and, while he has a wiki article, the article has a notability tag and the article has all the signs of a vanity piece having been created by a user called Tomtallitsch. 
Whatever,he certainly does not belong on this list with these distinguished musicians.
I propose that his name is removed. Paul210 (talk) 22:20, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I deleted Mindi Abair, She is not a Jazz saxophonist. She is a commercial Pop, rock, smooth jazz, R&B sax player. This list needs to be only for real Jazz saxophonists. What is real jazz you ask? Does it swing? If it swings then it's Jazz, if it doesn't swing then it's something else like fusion,  punk,  screamo, surf rock, or what ever. What about Latin Jazz, we need a category for Latin jazz. This list is useless because so many people are left off because they don't have an article on Wikipedia. How come I'm not on the frickin' list? Wikipedia is not GOD so stop trying to pretend you're the world cyber police. Everytime I add some of my friends, who are valid Jazz saxophonists,(I've been playing for 45 years, you come along and delete them. Well, I'm going to clean house now. Thank you for your time. I don't even know who you are, but a nameless faceless editor.

:I certain someone would be happy create an article for you if you meet the notability guidelines here: WP:NMUSIC. BTW, there is plenty of Jazz out there that doesn't swing. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 21:21, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Does Wynton Marsalis not meet the notability criteria? Or is there no WP article on him? I would be bold and add him if I knew how. Can someone more proficient than myself please see to this? Cheers, (201.224.33.254 (talk) 18:27, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
