Revert changes
I reverted your changes to the James Moody (saxophonist) page, because you had removed the Peter Keepnews article published in the New York Times which is used as a reliable 3rd party reference multiple times in the article. I am not doubting the family information that you had added, but Wikipedia relies on verifiable information so needs a published source more than personal knowledge. Feel free to re-add that information if there are published sources that include that information, but please don't delete the NYT reference. AllyD (talk) 16:01, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
