Iffy notability, compounded by large amounts of WP:OR, such as "e had a smile an a twinkle in his eyes. Thanks to Joe's visits to our house I was the only kid in my elementary school who knew many Cohan and other Broadway tunes by heart. After my step dad died in the 1970's my mom lost touch with Joe. I could find no records of a wife or children. But I do not believe Joe ever married. He was called a bachelor by my mom. I was going thru old pictures the other day and came across a few of Joe. I did an internet search and found no picture or biography of him. i did find that he lived until 2001. I wish I would have kept in touch with him, I thought he had passed away years before. I desided to do an brief internet biography of him. If you have any infomation or pictures of Joe, please made them available on the internet if you can. I was unable to find much information on Joe, so I called the Screen Acotr Guild(SAG) in California. SAG was very helpful and I could not have done this biography without them. Thank you SAG for keeping Joe's memory alive. Deedee from Detroit." Ironholds (talk) 19:19, 31 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak keep I think this article can be rescued with some careful editing out of the OR and personal reminiscences. Could easily be reduced to a stub for expansion. ukexpat (talk) 19:59, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have done some initial clean up and wikification. More to follow. – ukexpat (talk) 20:46, 31 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak keep May meet WP:MUSIC. Needs wikification, research and some generous slicing out of personal details. A stub is fine. At worst, this should be userfied. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 20:35, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep: Notability has been established by the recently added references. The article does need a champion to do some housekeeping. -- Oliver  Twisted (Talk) (Stuff) 03:38, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
