30 under 30?
If he was born in 1963, why would he be listed on a 30 under 30 list in 2012? The source for him being chosen for a "30 under 30" is a dead link. There's also no mention of who chose him as a "30 under 30". Forbes magazine? Either his DOB or this accolade is incorrect. 170.28.224.10 (talk) 21:14, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Career problems
The section on Career was written correctly on November 8. On November 9, changes were made that resulted in the first two sentences being ungrammatical and nonsensical. Both seem to be the result of incomplete editing. The subsequent parts of the section are worse now than they were on the 8th.

I don't know enough about how to edit these things (maintaining footnotes, etc.), but the version on November 8 was good and probably did not need revision. Reverting to that would fix the problems, if someone knows how to do it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Glm39 (talk • contribs) 17:33, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Images
Had the opportunity to see Batiste play in Brooklyn a couple days ago, on Juneteenth. He's been playing semi-regular shows in the area lately connected to the George Floyd protests. I took some pictures that I think came out pretty well, so putting them here for other editors to add/replace as they see fit. The full category is: commons:Category:Photographs taken by Rhododendrites - Jon Batiste and Matthew Whitaker on Juneteenth 2020. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 15:13, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

These are just great! It must have really been a treat to see/hear him play. These make such a nice gallery that I wonder if there would be an objection if I would place perhaps six of them into his article as is with perhaps a short note about the pandemic and how he is working through it. What do other think? Gandydancer (talk) 16:38, 21 June 2020 (UTC) PS: Looking at them, I think the first six are the best (and it's really good that the mask is seen in some of them).

 * User:Rhododendrites I'm not all together happy with what I have done here. I had hoped for input from others.  It is unusual to add a gallery other than at the bottom of the page and I did it anyway.  Please offer some feedback.  Gandydancer (talk) 20:16, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Well I got rid of the gallery after all and instead added a quote that's much too long...going batty I guess due to the isolation that I'm so sick of... { Gandydancer (talk) 03:37, 27 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Perhaps I would suggest resizing the photos, or choosing one, as they take over quite a large portion of the page for formatting purposes? CaffeinAddict (talk) 04:34, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I made them a little smaller. What do you think?  Gandydancer (talk) 05:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
