Actually, the copying was in the other direction; the website you refer to starts "This French biographical article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it. This article on a composer is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it." Then at the bottom of the page it says "This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Jehan Alain". "

  • I've rewritten his biography, based upon web research, together with liner notes from Marie-Claire Alain's Erato CD-set (Erato-2202-45402-2 + 2292-45508-2) and Helga Schauerte's Motette CD-set (Motelle CD-11301 + CD-11311). Alain's and Schauerte's notes do not coincide completely in every detail, and I've tried to keep the text in the middle-of-the-road where they disagree. I've retranslated the dedication from the Litanies but I'm not sure that I've translated the last line's delicious ambiguity very well. Suggestions welcome. Does anybody know if any of Jehan Alain's photos and drawings can be scanned and used here? Copyright information is difficult to locate. Next job is to write something useful about some of his works. Anybody up for that? Robindch 13:11, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Is there any more information about Jehan Stéfan and the sources for his researches into Alain's works? The list as presented, while excellent, would benefit from some external support which is more substantial than the copies (which is all I've been able to find with google).
