Largely uncited claims ("today the terms are used on anything") and random supposed notable things - like fitting an engine into a car. Not to mention uncited peacock words about "historic", "internationally recognized", his level of showmanship, etc.

If anything, this article can be saved by being retrofitted into an article on the company, Mooneyes(?) (also written as Moon or MOONEYES), not Dean Moon. JesseRafe ( talk) 21:28, 9 July 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep I found some more references and did a bit of editorial work. I think that this person is notable, although some better sources should be available from car/hot rod-oriented magazines, which I don't have access to. However, a good article about him and his work shows in a BBC publication, and LA Times gave him a (short) obit. The article does need work. LaMona ( talk) 00:24, 26 July 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep but the article does need work as LaMona pointed out. Sofiamar ( talk) 00:03, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Admittedly this article was of poor quality and perhaps didn't demonstrate the notability of the subject, but other sources do demonstrate notability. All the article needs is some work. Thine Antique Pen ( talk) 21:42, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply
