Talk:Daniel Curtis (composer)

[Untitled]

I have tried to improve this listing that I created by adding citations and making the links better. I have done this posting as I have a lot of respect for what Daniel and Laura Curtis do to preserve music and they are notable in the UK due to TV and Radio performances. Please do not delete, I would be grateful for any additional help in improving what I have done (Jessicarciahrds1 (talk) 13:39, 4 April 2012 (UTC))

No problem, Jessica. You've done a nice job (especially since this appears to be your first article!) I believe there is sufficient evidence of their notability, etc, so I've removed the tags. In the meantime, we can keep working to improve the article.JoelWhy (talk) 13:44, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

I still see a number of problems here…

• JoelWhy, please don't remove tags where you haven't fixed the problem. For instance, the {{orphan}} tag is on this article because it has zero incoming links from articles. Removing the tag doesn't change that.
• Jessicarciahrds1, along with re-adding some of the tags, I also weeded out the citations and removed those that aren't considered reliable sources. Re notability, the issue isn't so much whether or not they're notable, but whether or not the article explains why they're notable—and right now, it doesn't do that (and the inline citations don't help).
• BTW, the {{citecheck}} tag is there because there are no hits for "Daniel Curtis" or "Laura Curtis" when you search the Welsh Proms brochure. There is an act named "Curtis and Coyne" with "Laura Coyne and Dan Curtis," but no one searching for "Curtis and Coyne" will find this article, and vice versa.

I think there might be a good article here; it just needs some thorough referencing work. Dori ☾Talk ⁘ Contribs☽ 05:23, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Many thanks for the response. Laura Curtis was Laura Coyne but I believe they were married last year. The first time I ever saw them perform at BAFTA's it was before they were married. I don't know if there is a way to explain that, maybe by formerly Coyne? thanks for your help, much appreciated (Jessicarciahrds1 (talk) 08:23, 5 April 2012 (UTC))

Hello, tried to add some links to this but struggling to add the date and what it relates too into the code. I have put in a couple of links from other sources. Hopefully this will have helped. Thank you (RichardBowen1 (talk) 09:39, 5 April 2012 (UTC))

Jessicarciahrds1, thanks; I've tweaked the first paragraph some to match. RichardBowen1, as I said on your talk page, what this article really needs are secondary sources that cover the two. A BLP can't be solely based on primary sources, so see what you can get from newspaper and magazine interviews, maybe? Dori ☾Talk ⁘ Contribs☽ 02:16, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

I have added a preservation section about their work is actually a main focus of their work and added in two citations for different articles written about their work and preservation side. Hopefully this will be ok (90.218.179.241 (talk) 20:58, 6 April 2012 (UTC))

I believe jessica is finding some more articles online, we go to the same university were dan and laura recently held a talk on the subject(RichardBowen1 (talk) 21:01, 6 April 2012 (UTC))

I just went through it and re-formatted your citations; if you add more, could you use the existing ones as a template? The article is still desperately in need of (as I said above) reliable secondary sources, as it still doesn't have any. But it's getting better, so I've removed some of the tags.
