Re: The Wrong Object - deletion of page. edit

I understand that the page devoted to The Wrong Object has been deleted on the grounds that the content is directly derived from the band's official website (www.wrongobject.com).

All the text that features on the band's website was written by me (Michel Delville) - I hope that you will be kind enough to reconsider your position in the light of this new piece of information.

Many thanks in advance.

Did you send that e-mail? If not, I'd suggest you do so and re-create the article. As far as I can tell, that is the approved procedure on wikipedia to handle the situation. Best regards, BNutzer (talk) 00:04, 9 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

notability of The Wrong Object edit

I have added links leading to band's press kit, which contains approximately 200 reviews, a significant portion of which appeared in prominent jazz and progressive music journals such as Jazzwise, Musica Jazz, All About Jazz, Billboard, Signal to Noise, Jazzreview, Exposé Magazine, Prog-resiste as well as many other refereed electronic publications.

Extensive touring, radio coverage, and awards have also been mentioned in a new version of the article. The band's official discography (distribute worldwide)and its collaborations with luminaries of British jazz such as Harry Beckett, Elton Dean, Annie Whitehead and others add to their credentials and are now duly mentioned in the updated version of the article.

Hope this helps! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wrongobject (talkcontribs) 08:06, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Not much. The article needs independent evidence (not evidence via the band) for the praise that it mentions. -- Hoary (talk) 00:52, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

The link I provide at the end of the paragraph devoted to the band's notoriety leads to a page which contains full-text reviews and links to the publications' own websites. Is there another way I can make this artile more "neutral"? The only non-neutral word in this page is the word "positive" which charcaterizes the reviews in question. I can delete it,if you want me to, but this would make the article *less* objective and informative, the point being to account for the group's international reputation ... user talk:Wrongobject

The links you find on www.wrongobject.com/reviews.php led to independent sources (often to the articles themselves) except in the case of printed journals (I don't see how I could provide "evidence" for that except by attaching scans of the articles to the essay. If i indicated page and issue numbers I am assumin that this woudl also be regarded as "non-independent evidence" - sounds like a catch-22 to me ...user talk:Wrongobject —Preceding undated comment was added at 22:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC).Reply

All references to independent sources have been added -hope this is ok. (February 5, 2009).user talk:Wrongobject —Preceding undated comment was added at 21:54, 5 February 2009 (UTC).Reply

The music of The Wrong Object has generated many reviews all around the world and are considered as one of the new revelations in the world of Prog rock and Prog jazz. No matter what the entry currently ontains, their collaboration with Elton Dean (Soft Machine) alone on the album The Unbelievable Truth gives them considerable importance and notability. -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elisaw (talkcontribs) 23:54, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
