Comments 2009[edit]

should his tessitura be mentioned? He is able to sing the olor part of the carmina burana which is not easy without countertenor falsetto techniques. Rabauz (talk) 21:41, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest and future editing[edit]

Even if the material added yesterday hadn't been a copyvio, it was completely unencyclopedic and promotional in tone, and had no references to support any of the assertions. Also, by pasting that text in wholesale, all the formatting and references from previous editors (representing a lot of work) was removed. If you wish to make additions, do them gradually, in your own words maintaining a neutral point of view, referencing them to reliable published sources which are entirely independent of the subject, and respecting the existing formatting. Editors who are affiliated in any way (personal or professional) with Lawrence Brownlee, including working for or on behalf of his agents, KKN Enterprises, please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and follow the guidelines there scrupulously.
