Contested deletion

[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because, as I mentioned --perhaps at the wrong place: in the comment to the creation of the entry-- Jacqueline Vaissière is one of the leading European phoneticians. A full professor who is a recipient of a CNRS Silver Medal questioned as not important or significant... Makes we wonder what the standards are for inclusion in Wikipedia. Nobel Prize? Not that I consider the CNRS Silver Medal by itself as undeniable proof of significance. But please take a look around the Internet and by your criteria (American-style number of citations? other ways to assess scientific influence on a field?) I trust you can see for yourself that this is an important character. Apologies for not making it appear clearly in the first version of this page: this is intended to be expanded.
