Fails WP:BIO, reads more like a CV JMHamo (talk) 10:03, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Keep Cite it for style, or failure to use in-line sources, but certainly not for failing bio. He has been recognized by the French Ministry of Culture and awarded multiple prizes. He was selected to design the French pavilion at the Shanghai World Expo, among many others. There are works analyzing his style. SusunW (talk) 16:19, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Keep Bizarre nomination posted less than one minute aka sixty seconds after the entry has been started. Failure to capture one individual wiki user's interest is not a sufficient reason to delete anything. Entry has been started by an apparently new contributor, and the deletion request will simply risk deterring people from contributing to wikipedia which seems a very strange thing to wish to do. The speed with which nominator nominated so many entries for deletion means that either (1) he reads several times faster than the rest of us or (2) he nominates things for deletion without reading them. Either way, this presumably runs counter to Wikipedia's stated ambitions for itself.

Nominator spells out only one objection to the entry. Jacques Ferrier entry has been substantially expanded since nomination submitted, and since we must be sensitive to the nominator's style preferences, let us hope it no longer reads "like a CV" ("résumé") in his eyes.
