Untitled

It should be noted that Nigel Olsson is an excellent drummer, and singer. I have listened to a lot of his music from that he did solo... apart from the Elton years... and he has a definate soulful voice. He seems to be a well rounded musician and I'm told, is an exceptional human being as well.

Thanks. Nigel's mum. Garth of the Forest (talk) 04:11, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Equipment list deleted

The equipment list violates WP:PROMO and meets criteria for deletion under WP:Delete.

The mention of previous endorsement deals at the bottom of that section implies (though obliquely) this is a list of his current endorsement deals, which means advertizing.
The section consists entirely of material obtained from DW, Paiste, Remo, and Vic Firth, regarding their endorser.
WP is not a place to promote products per WP:PROMO.
The sources for this list are the manufacturers' webpages, and nothing else. (They are not independent, third-party sources, per WP:PROMO.)
The items in the list are sorted by manufacturer.
While these manufacturers are notable, they are not the subject of the article. Nigel Olsson is the subject.
The above fails WP:G11, speedy deletion criteria for exclusively promotional material. (Not the article, only the section. See the next item.)
Under WP:DEL-REASON criteria 1 (meets speedy deletion criteria) and 4 (advertizing), "subject to the condition that improvement or deletion of an offending section, if practical, is preferable to deletion of an entire page,"

I have therefore deleted the list. Dcs002 (talk) 06:49, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It appears to have been restored, so I have deleted it again. Arbalest Mike (talk) 00:31, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
