Rodgers and Hammerstein received a peer review by Wikipedia editors, which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article. |
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 10 January 2022 and 29 April 2022. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Ecac1119 ( article contribs).
I don't think they won two pulitzer prizes, only one. I was looking at the pulitzer winner lists, and I don't see their names anywhere else. Danlevenson ( talk) 10:54, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
I'm planning a complete overhaul of this article. If no one objects I will start doing it on December 10, 2005. This will include getting rid of all the sections about the musicals and focusing more on their work together as suggested by the peer review. -- kralahome 06:32, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
I know I haven't been working on it, but I will soon so I am putting the template back. -- kralahome 00:27, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Should we include a song list from all of their musical colaborations? -- arctic 05:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
I removed the "Musical Numbers" sections; the musical numbers for a given musical can be found on that musical's article page. This article probably needs more work on the musicals section as well, but I'm not sure exactly where to begin. -- Vbbdesign 00:04, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
Image:Oklahoma-DVDcover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:47, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Today's anon IP edits make the dubious and unsourced claim that the title of the song "Oklahoma!" was first "Pennsylvania". The edits have been deleted twice. I am writing this note for the record, in case this possible vandalism continues. In all of the literature on the musical Oklahoma!, I would think that this would have been mentioned. See [ [1]] for 1 example of a lengthy discussion of the musical, with no mention at all of this title change. I have requested WP:VERIFY, and will refer to this note in the future, if necessary.. JeanColumbia ( talk) 15:47, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
Actually, the original title was Oh! Calcutta! (Just kidding, but you can imagine how dangerous it is when the wind comes sweeping down the plain there!). -- Ssilvers ( talk) 04:00, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
If the social issues in some of the productions are going to be pointed out, then I think that it would be best if the idea is developed further. At least the issues in the six profiled ones should be mentioned; i.e., "Oklahoma!," "Carousel," "State Fair," "South Pacific," "The King and I," and "Flower Drum Song." The section could also be organized by pointing out a few main themes and then, in a more detailed way, looking at how various productions address each particular issue. Veritate10 ( talk) 22:24, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
Under "Previous work and partnerships" I removed an incomplete reference to "Roman Holiday," which said, "Also did Roman Holiday". I have not been able to find any information that mentioned Hammerstein and Kern's involvement with "Roman Holiday." Please add if you have any information concerning that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Veritate10 ( talk • contribs) 22:44, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
The King and I has been nominated for FAC. Please take a look at the article and give comments at the FAC if you can! -- Ssilvers ( talk) 00:02, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
I propose that posthumous adaptations should not be included under 'Work' as if they are part of the R&H canon. Otherwise it's confusing, because there are cases where a posthumous production really is the product of the deceased author. (For example, Fred Ebb wrote much of 'Scottsboro Boys' and 'Curtains', but they were only produced years after he died.)
If the adaptation is itself notable (such as Hwang's rewrite of 'Flower Drum Song'), it should be discussed on the relevant page. (Which it is.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by NeoAdamite ( talk • contribs) 16:01, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
My change of " refers to" to "were" was reverted with the comment rv British idiom. This article is written using American English. You can say "was", but not "were". Um, really? (I'm American.) I read the subject as, y'know, two names, not the name of a firm. Would a newspaper of their time have said "Rodgers and Hammerstein has done it again"? — Tamfang ( talk) 19:31, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Should this article mention that the 1997 version of Cinderella was made by Disney for their The Wonderful World of Disney TV program? Is that irrelevant? BlackAdvisor ( talk) 17:20, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
In the State Fair section: "It was a great success, winning Rodgers and Hammerstein their lone Oscar," but the intro says they won 15 Academy Awards. Cognita ( talk) 04:49, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
