Hello. The page you created, Kasper T. Toeplitz has been nominated for deletion. Conical Johnson (talk) 08:15, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Hello, I'm the person who wrote this article about Kasper T. Toeplitz, who's a musician that I appreciate. My English is rather bad, so I don't really understand what's the problem with it. There was already an article, on the French Wikipedia, which I have completed (in fact, I quite entirely written a new one). Then a friend, an English boy, journalist in France, told me it would be better to translate it for the English Wikipedia, because he had some friends in United States who were surprised that there was nothing yet about Toeplitz. He translated it for me, and I put it on English Wikipedia. That's all... I saw this article has been corrected since that, but I presume it's something that can happen. Toeplitz is an important composer, mostly in France certainly, but not only : he has performed all over the world (Germany, UK, Italy, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Poland, Russia, but also in United States or in Japan), and he has collaborated with plenty musicians (a lot have their article here, as Merzbow, KK Null, Phill Niblock, Rhys Chatham, Dror Feiler, Zbigniew Karkowski, Eliane Radigue...). So, what's the problem, and what an I supposed to do? Please, let me now (with simple words!!!) - Thank you ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akt-eng (talk • contribs) 00:52, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
I nominated this for deletion, since it was clear to me that the article had been written by its subject, and because his notability was not clear from searching the web. The AFD result was to keep the article, because it was claimed there are a number of independent sources, but none have been added to the article. The only refs put forth seem to be in French, and as I don't speak French, I'm unable to use these to back up anything in the article. If no one's ever going to put any refs in this article, eventually I'll delete everything for which no ref is cited. Conical Johnson (talk) 05:52, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for your answer. So, I put some press references on the article. Dan Warburton, Keith Moliné and The Wire are good references, I think: hope it'll will be enough ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akt-eng (talk • contribs) 00:26, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
I've added one reference and a references section, which is enough (just) to take the article out of the unreferenced biographies of living people category. The "references" referred to and added by the editor above lead only to the home page of the respective websites, not to the article or review of the work but, since I was unable to track down the relevant reference within these websites, they are of little use here. This article needs a general clean up and copy-edit, trimming to remove promotional comment and more references added to support the assertions in the text.--CharlieDelta (talk) 06:29, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
