Plagarism

Here is an example of what I mean.....
 * From Mr Ferkos' website;The music of Frank Ferko has been heard in live performances and radio broadcasts around the world. Hailed by critics as a master of text setting and composing for a cappella vocal ensembles, Mr. Ferko is one of the most sought after composers of new choral music today, and his works have been performed by some of the most highly regarded choral ensembles and vocal soloists of our time.
 * From the Wikipedia article;.......The music of Frank Ferko has been heard in live performances and radio broadcasts around the world. Noted for his exquisite text setting and composing for a cappella vocal ensembles, Mr. Ferko is a highly sought after composer of choral and vocal solo music today, and his works have been performed by some of the most highly regarded choral ensembles and vocal soloists of our time.
 * There is more, much more.```Buster Seven   Talk  00:06, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

Revert of recent expansion
I reverted the recent edits because they began to impart information about the composer in an overtly promotional way. Much of the new description - talk of the composer's "landmark" compositions, his "exquisite" settings, how "highly sought after" he is and how "renowned" his performers are, among many others - serves to advertise for the composer without communicating any factual, verifiable information. Also, the edits fail to use reliable sources - I'm sorry, but we cannot use personal e-mails as sources for Wikipedia articles, because we do not publish research based on primary sources. Third-party news/academic coverage of Ferko's work is desirable over use of Ferko's personal website as a source. Chubbles (talk) 17:19, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
