tab·leau (tăb'lō', tă-blō') n., pl. tab·leaux or tab·leaus (tăb'lōz', tă-blōz'). A vivid or graphic description: The movie was a tableau of a soldier's life. A striking incidental scene, as of a picturesque group of people: “New public figures suddenly abound in the hitherto faceless totalitarian tableaux” (John McLaughlin). An interlude during a scene when all the performers on stage freeze in position and then resume action as before. A tableau vivant. [French, from Old French tablel, diminutive of table, surface prepared for painting. See table.]
I don't like that the page was moved without discussion. I separated the pages because eventually, they must be two, and starting now makes navigation and redirects easier for everyone. ALTON .ıl 05:15, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
I don't think it's a good idea to split the article. If it got split, there would probably be two short stubs. Now it's an article which even needs ampliation, so we'd better leave it this way. In case of being a matter of increasing the number of articles of the English wikipedia, there's no need to do so. English wikipedia should now concentrate on improving the quality of the hundreds of short stubs it has (more than on creating new articles, which is also useful, of course).

Split declined. There is no clear consensus, and sources and publications discuss Opp. 33 and 39 as Études-Tableaux ( http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGLL_en-GB___GB379&tbs=bks%3A1&q=%C3%89tudes-Tableaux&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=), so it appropriate that we follow the sources - at least initially. If material is built up on one or other of Opp. 33 and 39 they can be split out at that point per WP:Summary style. If there is a new proposal to split the page, then a new tag with a new date should be placed on the page, and a rationale given on this talkpage. SilkTork * YES! 22:17, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
People are still going on about this? I haven't seen an iota of contribution to the page since 2 years ago it was first brought up. ALTON .ıl 00:57, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
Apart from the obvious problems with this article which I have just tagged (unreferenced and unencyclopaedic content close-paraphrased from this source, an unidentified essay that shows no sign of being a reliable source), there seems to be something well adrift with the references. There are four citations of a work by "Harrison", but the only source provided is a book by Geoffrey Norris. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 22:57, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
A majority of this seems to be written in a list format, with a considerable amount of biased content with little reference. Should this section be reformatted and written in paragraphs? If so, should it be completely rewritten or simply edited to make the existing content more encyclopaedic?
