?????

I question this person's renown. There are many leaders of small chamber groups, and many random Romanian musicians, who are not renowned enough to merit a wikipedia article. Having met this person, and having studied under him, I would place him in that category. Also Devon Prep's musical productions are far from famous, at least no more famous than those of any other random Catholic school in the Philadelphia area.

I'm guessing that the author of the article is either the subject's relative or a Devon Prep alumnus, either of which would constitute a significant conflict of interest. If I knew how to submit an article as a candidate for deletion, I certainly would in this case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.2.129.155 (talk) 18:49, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete link.

I am removing the speedy delete link. The material on Lyrichord's website was provided to them by Vox Ama Deus, as they have been distributing the group's CDs for the past several years. Vox Ama Deus owns the material and content of the recordings and the texts. It therefore does not fit the criteria for copyright infringement. Paul Marchesano Marchesa (talk) 15:58, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? If Vox Ama Deus owns the copyright on the text then it can't be used here. That's what makes it a copyright infringement. Hairhorn (talk) 17:17, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We cannot infringe our own copyright. We are providing permission for it to be posted by posting it here ourselves. You should reread copyright law. No one is seeing commercial gain by us posting our text here. An entity cannot infringe on its own copyright. Kindly identify yourself. Marchesa (talk) 22:18, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good grief. Please see your talk page. Hairhorn (talk) 23:07, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note also that the article was nominated for deletion in 2008 and the result of the discussions was keep, so you are out of line. 173.59.34.106 (talk) 15:35, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Um, no, removing copyright violations is never "out of line". I have never nominated this page for deletion. Please watch your tone and get your facts straight. Hairhorn (talk) 21:05, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
