Please help expand this article

I would so love to expand this article, especially the section on his operas. As a former student of his, I was impressed with the thematic arc of his three major works that covered three very different aspects of distinctly American religious movements, Mormonism, New England Quakerism and Shakerism. I had the privilege to perform in excerpts from The Pariahs and the Mother Ann trilogy. They are beautiful and important works that I hope are someday better appreciated. If an editor with a background in music history would like to help me with this, please leave a remark on my talk page. I am wary of adding to many edits on my own lest they be considered original research.Lisapollison 07:45, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion by Scottandrewhutchins was inappropriate

Scottandrewhutchins (talk · contribs) reverted an edit whose summary was "add infobox, remove some categories not substantiated by the article or refs"; the reversion was a step back for the article. That edit introduced an infobox for the article, and doubled the number of cases where a reference was cited, among other improvements. The reversion was accompanied by the comment:

He's openly gay and all his students know. Undid revision 291382605 by 67.100.125.164

I don't know if he's openly gay or not, but that wasn't the point. The point is that there were two categories applied to the article that aren't substantiated by a reference. Perhaps the reference should be <ref>{{cite web| author= Scottandrewhutchins | authorlink= User:Scottandrewhutchins | quote= He's openly gay and all his students know}}</ref>? I'm reverting his reversion, and looking forward to Scottandrewhutchins (talk · contribs) or someone else going to the trouble to google for a reference. Since he's openly gay it should be easy to find one. Thanks. 67.100.126.197 (talk) 23:32, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
