Jazz

 * Article is no longer a featured article.

Very old FAC that did not evolve especially well. Current version fails several important criteria:


 * 3.a lead section: Lead is awfully short for an article this lenght
 * 3.b heading structure: Structure is overwhelmed by a history section that is itself weirdly structured. One can only doubt of the placement of subgenres in the History section. Overall, structure is hardly efficient at all.
 * 3.c table of contents: Overwhelm the lead completely, and is generally overly large.
 * 2.b comprehensiveness: Considering the structure, I can't even tell if the article looks comprehensive.
 * 2.c Factual accuracy: A single source and no inline citation.

 * Remove. Needs all of the above.  A request for citations was posted to the talk page in April 2005. Durova 20:26, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Remove Concur. I think it can be improved rather quickly if some dedicated editor takes up the task, and I certainly hope this will happen. –Joke 01:11, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Has the basis of a good article; to be developed.
 * Remove lacks refs & inline citations. Not our best work. Mi kk er ... 17:40, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Remove As above. Not comprehensive: no reference to Django Reinhard and many other European artists.  American POV.  No reference to Neo Bob Missing audio samples. Compare with blues. Vb 15:13, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
