Numerous concerns of violations of:

  • WP:RS and WP:V - the article contains no reliable sources for any of the information on the page, which means it can't establish its notability that smooth jazz does have, ie. it is a major jazz genre with a lot of radio coverage, especially in the USA and on the Internet;
  • WP:NPOV - a number of editors have concerns over the criticism section, to quote a few people on the talk page, it needs to be less editorial and less like "an impassioned talk show debate, on both sides";
  • WP:NOR - the "Smooth jazz albums generally considered to be genre-defining" section has no references to establish that they are genre-defining;
  • WP:NOT#DIR & WP:EL - the lists of smooth jazz radio stations as external links.

The whole article needs a major cleanup, if not rewrite. I have also asked for help from WikiProject Jazz to help. --tgheretford (talk) 16:02, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
