Untitled[edit]

New Wiki entry now on line.

Glad to see this article exists now--for once, a pianist that actually deserves a wikipedia article. Slystoneisback (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:35, 22 May 2009 (UTC).[reply]

This article reads like a press release.

Also, the Anna Polonsky link near the end of the body of the article is out of date.108.244.74.98 (talk) 01:47, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Info re primary author of article[edit]

I am posting the following note here to assist future editors in understanding how this article came to be created by its primary author, Miriam Weiss (who is evidently closely related to the subject, most likely either his sister or his mother). Her note was posted on the talk page of User:DragonflySixtySeven; Ms. Weiss had erroneously concluded that the article had been deleted. Cgingold (talk) 08:50, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

== Speedy (!) Deletion of article about Classical Pianist Orion Weiss ==

Dear DragonflySixtySeven,

Yes, you are right that the article (which took me many many hours to write) is about someone near and dear to me.

However it is completely documented and verifiable, if you check the links and references. Orion Weiss has achieved everything indicated in the primary references to newspaper articles. He has two CD's for sale on Amazon.com.

His accomplishments are every bit as interesting and important as many other pianists with Wiki pages that have not been deleted--Jonathan Biss, or David Fong for example.

This is my first attempt to write something in Wikipedia. After I created the page on my registered page I could not figure out how to separate the page from the place I created it when I redirected it.

I think the Orion Weiss entry can stand alone. If necessary, perhaps someone else can post it so it is no longer connected to my wikipedia page.

Please advise how to proceed. This article DOES belong in wikipedia.

Thanks for your attention and thoughts.
