The entire second half of this article, and perhaps the whole piece, is compromised by aggrandizing terminology. Someone please size it down and even it up. Cjs2111 23:58, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The reason why the second half is so laudatory is precisely beacuse Weiler is one of the most influential and leading academics and policy-makers of our time. If we gave the blank facts, then it would be impossible to recognise his unique contribution.Harlay (talk) 01:03, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but that's nonsense. Not even in the entry on Beethoven will you find such overblown language. Weiler is, in my opinion, a very good and influential scholar, but even so I find this entry comical.
