...Wasn't able to add in the business with selling the score to Metzler and buying it back. Anyone see a good place for it? Adam Cuerden 20:27, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Is this article sufficient proof that Sullivan disliked the book of the Sapphire Necklace enough to censor it as he did the Zoo? I'm tempted to use it, but wonder if we need more evidence to back that claim. Adam Cuerden 21:30, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
The quote from "When Love and Beauty to be married go" and the commentary on it probably flout WP:NOR. Mind you, I do not disagree that the poetry is awful, but it seems to be an original conclusion, rather than an observation drawn from a citable source. Marc Shepherd 15:02, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Careful when removing POV phrases - a few of the paragraphs are ending up as unconnected sentences. Adam Cuerden 15:09, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Have rearranged things a bit to avoid implying a relationship between that quote and the rest: There's cites for the poor libretto. The quote is not needed. I did use some judgement in standardising the libretto for "When love and beauty" - Chorley may have written in some of the repeats for all I know - but I have tried to be as accurate in reflexting him as I could.
It is possible "Smiles on the pair." and "Though rose-buds pant and blow" are one line. This makes the rhyme scheme match verse 2, but makes the line awkwardly long. Best guess is that it's either a line trimmed by Sullivan to half its length, in which case we can't find out without the original libretto anyway, or just an orphan line in the rhyme scheme, since such lines do appear in Kenilworth regularly as well. Adam Cuerden 22:03, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
I would be inclined to argue this was at least B-class. Only thing not present is Chorley's rather self-serving reviews of the concerts (!!!) in the Æthenium. Adam Cuerden talk 19:42, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
Unfortunately, this article has no references whatsoever and therefore is far from being a good article. The Filmaker 20:01, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
I don't see how it can even be a B without a plot synopsis. -- Ssilvers 14:00, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Scott, can you add the details of the production using your libretto? A brief mention of that production in the article would be of interest, since no other modern perfomances appear to have taken place? The Mary QoS speculation can't really be mentioned unless there is something to cite to. Best regards, -- Ssilvers 16:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
Does this theatre co. have a website? Is it prof. or amateur? Who conducted? I don't think it's worth listing the characters or going into much more detail on the non-Sullivan material. If people are interested, we have given them a link to follow. Also feel free to add your own website to the list of external links or any other website that has more info on the piece. -- Ssilvers 23:01, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
