Jean-Yves Malmasson
User:Musikfabrik has admitted to having been used for company promotion. All these articles by him seem non-notable: I may be wrong.

Also:
 * Gian Paolo Chiti
 * Jean-Marie Londeix

 * Delete all except Malmasson, who probably just scrapes through notability. The other two look desperately obscure. Moreschi 15:23, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment I am not voting on Chiti or Malmasson as my objectivity has been questioned, however, without comment But, since I have no connections what so ever with Jean-Marie Londeix (Well, Paul Wehage knows him, but you certainly couldn't call them friends...) and since Musikfabrik's one damning edit to that article consisted of changing "Jean-Marie Londeix" to "Londeix, Jean-Marie" in the categories listed, I will vote an very enthusiastic
 * Gian Paolo Chiti


 * Strong Keep Londeix, who has more than the required number of recordings to, is an important teacher and has generated an important part of the Saxophone repertoire.

 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 13:47, 25 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep Londeix; 17,500 ghits, extremely notable saxophonist. He is also listed in the New Grove, in the saxophone article itself, as one of the leading saxophonists of his generation.  Keep Malmasson, sufficiently notable.  Keep Chiti; he's head of the composition program at Santa Cecilia in Rome, gets 1200+ ghits, and shows up on the web with enough performances, publications, and commentary to pass the notability bar, at least for me.

 * I think it is extremely important to KEEP Londeix. As one of the grandfathers of the classical saxophone tradition, it is important to keep his article, though its augmentation seems necessary to justify this and therefore explain his prominence as a saxophonist.  I will second the above claim about Londeix' mention in the New Grove as it testifies to his importance.


 * Keep Chiti *Keep Malmasson - Yes, I'm biased, but they is qualifies per Antandrus  above Jean-Thierry Boisseau 22:02, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

It would helpful to update Londeix - as written, the article doesn't support his notability. Adam Cuerden talk 00:23, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * O.K then, keep Londeix - but I'm still very unconvinced by Chiti. Moreschi
