Clean up needed[edit]

This is one of many articles on singers created by an employee of the Spanish firm Fidelio artist management and public relations. They are all on notable singers but written like résumés, with superfluous name-dropping, unidiomatic English, and very poor internal linking. They also tend to contain verbatim sentences from the artists' official biographies and need to be checked carefully. Voceditenore (talk) 12:23, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the c/e tag. Except for a bit of paraphrasing (not verbatim copy) of his website and a few redlinks, I don't see the problems described by Voceditenore. I presume a year's worth of copy-editing has done the trick. BLP sources tag remains. Richigi (talk) 05:41, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's much better now. Voceditenore (talk) 06:47, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of shows[edit]

I removed the long list of every single concert he has ever performed, which seemed a little excessive. Also, his smug expression in the picture makes me think that he must rival God in his extravagant ability and superiority.Editfromwithout (talk) 04:00, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problem removed[edit]

Prior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. The material was copied from: http://www.carlocolombara.com/new/eng/biography.html. Copied or closely paraphrased material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or published material; such additions will be deleted. Contributors may use copyrighted publications as a source of information, and according to fair use may copy sentences and phrases, provided they are included in quotation marks and referenced properly. The material may also be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Therefore such paraphrased portions must provide their source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with these policies. Thank you. Voceditenore (talk) 11:08, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note that even were permission to be received, the poor English and promotional tone of the text would require extensive editing. Voceditenore (talk) 11:08, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
