This article has gone through a lot of debate between me and other editors, and was obviously started as an autobiography(see user name). Also, there is a lack of notability; no evidence that this person meets WP:PROF or WP:MUSICBIO. Finally, many of the references (listed as notes) use commercial websites that simply host music, or foreign sources. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk) 21:08, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

- Delete - I've looked quite extensively for references for this. While his PhD. thesis appears in about 60 bibliographies for other papers, this is not sufficient for an academic to have their own article. Re the music aspects of his career, there is likewise no coverage or reviews of the CDs mentioned in which he is claimed to the composer (and performer). The CDs appear to be self-published. The article appears to be a pre-publicity attempt for the second CD. Note that this article's creator, User:Alain.m.jacques also created [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jacques_Pottier&oldid=339259717 Jacques Pottier], who sings the songs composed by Alain Jacques. There is also zero independent biographical material available apart from this article which appears to be an autobiography. I suggest also listing this with music-related AfDs.--Voceditenore (talk) 10:21, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
