Talk:Chen Reiss

Referencing and notability
The assertion "Today she is a frequent performer with the Pittsburgh Symphony and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra" needs references that appear in reliable third-party publications. Primary sources or sources affiliated with the subject, e.g. her official web site, are generally not sufficient for a Wikipedia article. The only other reference is a review of one performance as a soloist in a choral work conducted by Daniel Barenboim. The subject is notable but this article needs not only more content, but more citations from reliable sources, e.g., to demonstrate this. Voceditenore (talk) 07:19, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Note also that even if permission is given, material from an artist's or organization's official web site is almost invariably promotional to some degree (as was the case here) and will require significant editing to achieve a neutral, encylopedic tone.
