Biography guidelines
editThis biography is verifiable, because it was supplied by the person it is about, so it is 100% accurate.
As for the neutral tone, and sounding like a resume, I could do with some guidance as to how to go about writing this differently. I can only see that writing it differently would change it into longer wordy paragraphs that say exactly the same as the article succinctly says at the moment in less words. Advice and guidance would be helpful if anyone would like to chip in at this point, thanks.
Candida, are you a synesthete? I ask this because of the development of musicolor seems to suggest this.

=what to do about it
editFirst, read WP:COI and WP:N. The subject is probably notable, but it has to be shown that other people know it. We strongly discourage writing articles about one's close associates, because human nature being what it is, its harder to be objective. So what you need to do is first, to write it in paragraphs like an encyclopedia article--this is after all an encyclopedic, not a directory. Specific awards or productions can be shown as a list within the article-- a combination like that usually reads better.
Then , it is absolutely necessary to provide references from reliable 3rd party published sources to show that the importance is recognized--personal knowledge isn't really enough to make the case. Additionally, make external links to 1 or 2 key web sites that can & should include the person's official site, & the one for a relevant organization. I'd advise doing is very fast, because the article is almost certain to be sent for deletion otherwise. DGG (talk) 19:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
