The original content: On March 21, 1952, Cleveland disc jockey Alan Freed promoted The Moondog Coronation Ball at the Cleveland Arena which is recognized as the first rock and roll concert, but Scott was not in attendance at this historic show.

User Horwendil deleted this first sentence multiple times. A citation was added . Then user Horwendil added this unnecessary sentence - She was also not present at the moon landing, the assassination of JFK, nor my high school graduation.

The original information is key to Jane's biography. Her status as the 'world's first rock critic' is tied to the date of the world's first rock and roll concert. Dozens of obituaries from across the country also referenced this fact about the Moondog concert date in correlation to the start of Jane Scott's writing career. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FOJ90 (talkcontribs) 12:28, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The suggestion created is that the two events are related. They are not. They may be interesting, but that doesn't make them relevant to each other. The implication is that, as a result of the Moondog Coronation Ball, she decided to become a rock critic. This is inaccurate, she was not hired as a rock critic, she did not become a rock critic until years later. The graph should edited to reflect this. Horwendil (talk) 14:08, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
