This amazes me. Michael Cretu is the world's greatest living producer and yet he has no page on Wikipedia. WE, his fans surely have to do something about that! Please help. Any scrap of information, truthful information is worthy.

I wish that Wiki would let me type "Michael Cretu is the answer", or something stupid like that, but it would soon be edited out by more rational, factual people. Passion has a place, and it's probably not in an open encyclopedia ;-)

Anyway, come on people, let's make Michael's page one of the most accurate and informative musical artist's pages on Wikipedia.

I wrote the original stub, I've been planning on updating this for a while. I'll see if I can motivate myself in the next week to do more :) (and kudos to the anonymous person who has made a lot of the recent updates). Incidentally, the German wiki page is excellent. --Zerbey 21:59, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Excellent. Thanks very much for the information Zerbey. I will have to check out the German page. I'm sure that it will be fun translating it on Google, and then trying to understand it :-)

It would be excellent if we can get a really substantial page together, and make a lot of reference to it on the Enigma page. There are so many fans of Enigma in the world, and yet only the real fans know about Michael, his life, and his fantastic solo career before Enigma. I absolutely love music from so many wildly different styles, and yet for me he is the most perfect sounding producer in the world. His records right from the early days to the present day are just genius. I have now registered on Wikipedia too, so that I am no longer Anonymous :-) --Mart Owen 21:12, 07 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Happy Birthday Michael! --Mart Owen 14:16, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

Ace new photo. Good stuff. It's amazing how you imagine a person from 15 years ago, still sitting behind a mixing console, or production facility, if you've not seen a "latest" photo. Good to see Michael looking happy and healthy, is all I can say. --Mart Owen 00:50, 11 June 2005 (UTC)

Thanks Mart, Michael's looking well indeed, hope he's in a good shape and working on the newest album... ;) --Andylkl (talk) 08:49, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

Does any Wikipedian know why and how Michael left Romania? Was he leaving in a Nadia Comaneci style or in a George Palade style?

Is this guy's name Michael Cretu, or is it Crețu/Creţu? I ask because „Crețu” makes more sense in Romanian.

He changed his surname in order to avoid the letter "ţ", which is indisponsible on German keyboards. He was born as Mihai Creţu. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.21.6.23 (talk) 14:45, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
