This article was originally a CSD A7 speedy deletion, overturned by DRV, which found that notability was asserted. Large portions of the work are translations from the French Wikipedia. This is a procedural listing, so I abstain. Xoloz 02:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep for roughly the same reason as the Chatelain AFD. YechielMan 16:45, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Weak Delete. Badly written article which all-but suggests its subject is non-notable. However I might be persuaded to change this vote if the focus is switched to his songwriting, and reliable sources are presented to the effect that the songs listed towards the end of the article were in fact hits.

 * Keep. Comment he's handicapped by having a very common name. I Googled for sources, but can't be sure they're really for him or not. this seems to be him, but is just a list, not sufficient. See It through My Eyes seems to be him also. Does he meet WP:MUSIC? --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:33, 17 April 2007 (UTC) Changing to keep, meets WP:MUSIC with charted hits per Adrienne93 and Dissolve, below. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:34, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep All the songs listed were co-written by Jack Robinson. See Robin Song Music website: www.robinsongmusic.com/     Also, if anyone has a question about authorship of any song it suffices to go on to Google and type in the name of the song. If they just want to keep the musical references:
 * Major hits: I Love to Love (But my Baby just loves to Dance (J.Bolden-J.Robinson) Saddle Up (J Bolden-J.Robinson), Strut Your Funky Stuff ( J.Bolden-J.Robinson-V. Robinson (If You Want It ) Do it Yourself (J.Bolden-J.Robinson),  Irresistible (J. Robinson-R.Musumarra,   Love Me Like a Lover (J.Bolden-J.Robinson) Rendezvous (J.Robinson-J.Bolden).    Jack Robinson also produced King Harvest's  "Dancing In the Moonlight", etc.
 * Be lenient, I'm not english... and it's difficult to me to write in english.
 * Thanks. Adrienne93 16:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Cheesecake manufacturer, but a particularly successful one. If he in fact co-wrote Irresistible that's enough to make him notable. ~ trialsanderrors 05:36, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
