Birth name?
editJust curious as to why this article and other sources say she was born Crystêle Madeline Joliton where the linked biography and other language versions of the article say it was Marie-Ange Chapelain. An admittedly shallow Googling has turned up numerous results for both. Anyone? Doze 22:35, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- It is a good question, I'll try digging something up, though I don't know how much I can find. --Koveras ☭ 13:14, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
- According with the old official websites for Carmine Meo, Emma Shapplin and Pendragon Records SL (www.carminemeo.com - www.emmashapplin.com - www.pendragon-records.com) Crystèle Joliton is her real name. Now, you can see it in the Jean-Patrick Capdevielle forum, he is the producer for Carmine Meo album (www.jpcapdevielle.com). See archive.org and courdecassation.fr too.

- Marie-Ange Chapelain perhaps is another pseudonym; she was received an award on April 01 2007 with this name; also in the book for Carmine Meo album appear this name in the credits for some songs. Anders-H 22:46, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- Madeline, I'm not sure; only saw it in some unofficials forums and website, but who posted it no gave very information for confirm. I'm sorry for my english. Anders-H 22:08, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Official website
editThe official website www.emmashapplin.net was closed on December 13 2006. Please don't put fansites like "Official". Anders-H 21:44, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
The new official website is www.emma-shapplin.eu, launched in October 2009.
This site is produced by Nimue Music, Emma Shapplin's own production company.
Russian interview
editCould you please be more specific about that interview, e.g. when it was aired?.. --Koveras ☭ 07:49, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
- In august of 2007. Other source: her first manager say it too. Other: In an special TV program, with interview, in the Latvian TV (but there the host say it)Anders-H (talk) 08:56, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Language on Carmine Meo?
editI reverted part of the change by 79.126.193.79 as the sole source cited mentions that the lyrics "were then translated into Latin and ancient Provençal dialect". There may be confusion as the translator was "an Italian medievalist". Certainly, Provençal is distinct from Italian, Baroque or otherwise. If the source is wrong, provide an alternative source.

- If a source backs up your text, then it has more validity than the unsourced claims. ^^ --Koveras ☭ 23:10, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
I deleted some few info who has to be update and justify oliverzz —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oliverzz (talk • contribs) 10:06, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi
Please relating the langage take a look on Mll Shapplin's website and read the bio.(Oliverzz (talk) 02:10, 20 November 2009 (UTC)).
- Why me? You seem to be knowledgeable with that new site, so go ahead and add some refs yourself. :) Don't be lazy, that doesn't get Wikipedia anywhere. --Koveras ☭ 06:22, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Sorry but I read the reference about the case you mentioned , it is a gain a publicity on different artist who has nothing to do and no connection with Mll Shapplin relating any case you have to mention some document from the french court or other court and not from a magazine for some publicity Please introduce some document and not article relating any case it is too important(Oliverzz (talk) 02:23, 20 November 2009 (UTC)). Thank you
- Well, if you pull the WP:BLP card, I can only give in. Besides, I wasn't the one who added that bit of info, anyway, so the original editor will have to do the work... --Koveras ☭ 06:22, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Tone of article
editThis article reads like a press release. It does not adopt a neutral tone. The aim of articles in Wikipedia should be to inform, not to promote. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjjanmb (talk • contribs) 20:13, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Had you checked the history of the article, you would have noticed that it has been vandalized. :) Please take more proactive role in improving the Wikipedia materials. ;) --Koveras ☭ 08:00, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
some few change from wrong info from Niume music and emmashapplin.eu —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oliverzz (talk • contribs) 10:19, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
I delete "provencal dialect as it is wrong —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oliverzz (talk • contribs) 10:28, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
FYI Wikipedia does not ask whether it's "right" or "wrong" but rather whether it is verifiable or not. The claim about the dialect was supported by a source, so it should remain in the article unless another source is given to dispute it. Also, deleting uncomfortable sources is not a good editing practice. --Koveras ☭ 14:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Protection?
editThe page has been vandalized (by overwriting the current content with unencyclopedic one) nine times in the past twelve days, most of them, yesterday and today. Should we request a semi-protection for it? --Koveras ☭ 13:03, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
archaic opera?
editWhat is it?--A1 (talk) 09:05, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
- The only plausible interpretation is Italian Baroque opera of the 17th century (the era of the first operas), IMHO, so I changed the text to "early opera" and added a link to reflect that. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 19:06, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
