Conflict of interest

Hi,

This is to acknowledge a close connection to Stéphane Michaud (I'm his son). When I created the article a few years back I had not given a lot of thought to Wikipedia policies; apologies for this. I now understand that I should refrain from editing in the main space.

For anyone interested to improve the page by adding secondary sources & redressing possible imbalance in this article, one possible place to look would be the papers collected in a Festschrift published in 2017:

Daros, Philippe (2017). Cartographie d'une amitié. Pour Stéphane Michaud. Paris: Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle. pp. 16–19. ISBN 978-2-87854-914-0

While it's not a neutral source, as the papers are written by friends & close colleagues of his, I guess it counts as a secondary source? Contributions to that volume include one by Nobel prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa (who talks of his 'admiration & affection' for Stéphane Michaud); this could perhaps count as evidence of notability, in case this issue came to be debated.

All best wishes, --AlexisMichaud (talk) 06:11, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
