::5. Elwood's Blues: Interviews with the Blues Legends & Stars by Dan Aykroyd, Ben Manilla (2004) [http://books.google.com/books?id=74G8kP6fkLUC&pg=PA110&dq=Ronnie+Baker+Brooks&hl=en&sa=X&ei=ObhmUu2bCoG82gX5iYDoAw&ved=0CEMQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=Ronnie%20Baker%20Brooks&f=false] - a paragraph that includes RBB--[[User:Wpwatchdog|Wpwatchdog]] ([[User talk:Wpwatchdog|talk]]) 18:11, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

:::I hate to say it but if anything those quotes convince me more that RBB should not be included. To paraphrase all they said was that RBB is the son of a famous Chicago Blues musician and that he like his father also plays the Blues. To me that is not nearly enough to be included in a paragraph with people like Muddy Waters or Lonnie Brooks. What I think is required is a quote that says Ronnie Baker Brooks is known for some contribution to Chicago Blues besides just being the son of a great Chicago Blues Man.

.Adding back Harmonica Hinds as he meets Material Scientist's criteria - please see Wikipedia article. Will request arbitration if unable to agee.--[[User:Wpwatchdog|Wpwatchdog]] ([[User talk:Wpwatchdog|talk]]) 17:15, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

:I don't see how Harmonica Hinds is in the same league as people like Muddy Waters, James Cotton, Elmore James, etc. I know Chicago Blues pretty well and I've never heard of him. I've read two of the major source books for this article and as far as I can recall his name wasn't even in the index of either one. I could actually see a good case to trim out some of the other names that are there already These articles are supposed to be about the most well known and noteworthy Chicago blues artists not for each editor to add their personal favorite. --[[User:MadScientistX11|MadScientistX11]] ([[User talk:MadScientistX11|talk]]) 21:42, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

::I was not the original editor to add Harmonica Hinds to the article. It seems you may be defining "notable" as world famous. I would like to request a [[Wikipedia: Third Opinion]] unless you prefer more formal dispute resolution. I will abide by a third opinion. I will wait for your response before proceeding. Thank you.--[[User:Wpwatchdog|Wpwatchdog]] ([[User talk:Wpwatchdog|talk]]) 12:36, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
