This article's history shows that it was largely created by User:Wrongobject (contributions). In this edit, Wrongobject identifies himself as Michel Delville. -- Hoary (talk) 00:58, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have added citation sources to the previous version of the entry, as requested by the reviewer. The content of this article is purely factual. Reviews and awards (which are merely cited and quantified) are also factual pieces of information and I do not see anything in this piece that would seem to infringe Wikipedia's legitimate rule that articles should be "written from a neutral point of view, representing fairly, and as far as possible without bias, all significant views that have been published by reliable sources"Wrongobject (talk) 19:39, 3 February 2009 (UTC)WrongobjectReply
A very small number of sources has been added, to what remain a large number of assertions. A set of three literary awards was followed by one external link, but the link was to a web page that announces the availability of le prix Léon Guérin but that doesn't say who has won it: this is not a source at all. There were also two links to www.wrongobject.com/reviews.php, which is a collection of reviews hosted by what (in view of its relationship with the subject) is not regarded as a "reliable source": some of those reviews themselves have what appear to be links to where they were first posted, and it's the latter links that should be used to "source" reviews thought to be worth mentioning. -- Hoary (talk) 23:57, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
No problem : I will add more independent citations (including issue and page numbers when the review were published in printed journals). Concerning the LG Prize, it is unfortunate that their webite does not featue a list of awards. Would this independent link (from the American Embasssy in Brussels) be considered as an independent source : http://www.kbr.be/cas/AmericanStudies/academics.html?

Yes, this is fine, and I was happy to insert it just now. -- Hoary (talk) 13:30, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Just so you and the Wiki readership knows, I decided to rewrite and expand this entry myself because I found the earlier version inaccurate and misleading in many respects.

The importance of Delville's work as an academic and a musician is undeniable, well-known in academic and progressive music circuits and verifiable on the new version of the entry. The magazines cited are best-selling, refereed magazines. As for his critical studies and essays, they were published by university presses and renowned independent presses such as Routledge and Peter Lang and received awards from well-known institutons such as the 1935-founded SAMLA and CHOICE, CHOICE is a publication of the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL), a division of American Library Association, to hich Wikipedia has devoted a subtantial entry.

I agree with what has just been said about the importance of The Wrong Object as a Nu-prog-Jazz band. I just had one more item to the list of Delville's credentials as a critic on both sides of the Altantic: lLast week, he was the guest of a one-hour radio show on Shakespeare hosted by French philosopher Raphael Enthoven on France Culture's Les Chemins de la connaissance: http://www.radiofrance.fr/chaines/france-culture2/emissions/chemins/fiche.php?diffusion_id=70303 User:progfan1 —Preceding undated comment was added at 00:25, 9 February 2009 (UTC).Reply
