Hi. Chubb enna itor 11:22, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
I'll probably be able to add a few things, but I see that Voceditenore has already made a number of additions. Just wondering what your interest in him is - did you see him on stage? I saw him in quite a few operas, mostly Verdi ( I due Foscari and Les vêpres Siciliennes spring to mind) in the 70s and 80s. -- Guillaume Tell 21:20, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! Four and a half years on WP and suddenly three of them come along at once, like the #73 bus. Did you notice that we were both dab-ing simultaneously? Caritas was the sticky one - I'd done the dab properly but had put it into the sort key (Hs) area rather than the opera title. -- Guillaume Tell 21:28, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for expanding the dates. I was contemplating doing it myself, but I'd have had the second date on the line below, so as not to use up extra width that would benefit more important info in other columns. I've been thinking as well of putting in <br> here and there, for example in conductor and designer columns, to avoid breaking names in half. Any thoughts? -- Guillaume Tell 16:51, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
On the 1981-90 page you'll see I've done a load of little alterations. A few very long names (in all three colums) I've now split over two lines (eg Christopher Renshaw) which has hugely reduced the amount of wasted space. I've also changed 1984-1985 to 1984-85 etc. In the case of 1999-2000 I think we should simply bite the bullet and write 1999-00. No one is going to be scratching their heads over that one! Anyway if you think that it now looks ok I'll do the other pages to match. Oh btw, an indication of how weird wikitables are: the system was breaking "Rimsky-Korsakov" over two lines automatically- but then leaving quite a space after the hyphen. By putting a line break in after the hyphen, that wasted space disappears. So I've gained space there too! almost- instinct 09:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Good grief! I can force the width size - please tell me if it works for you almost- instinct 20:20, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
I'll sort this out later today, don't worry! I think WP must interact slightly differently with different browsers. I'm on IE on Vista - plus a widescreen ;-) almost- instinct 07:23, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi, think you are going to have to reword your change to Philip Larkin the " Hull Paragon Interchange Hull's main railway station" is not really true as it is Hull's only railway station and it is also a bus/coach station.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles ( talk) 04:44, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
I dug out two old copies of Opera magazine yesterday. May 1981 has an article by Noel Goodwin about the opera, which could be used in a "Background" section. July 1981 has a review by Arthur Jacobs, including a complete cast-list. He's rather rude about it ("Ends with a major chord? No, not possible!"). I'll put in some quotes from it when I have time.
Looking around, I find two WP redirects, each entitled Anna Karenina (opera) (I'm surprised that this is possible), a reasonable Anna Karenina (disambiguation) page and an almost identical but with too many blue links Adaptations of Anna Karenina page. Erk! -- Guillaume Tell 17:29, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

The two of you should really stop this habit you seem to have of attempting to violate the privacy of other users. Your attempts and collusion here and elsewhere have nothing to do with the substantive discussion of articles at hand. It is really unseemly. Stick to the subject of article content editing not personality and personal information discussion. If you have a problem with content, then talk about that. You really are making it difficult for others to make substantive contributions and discouraging others from even wanting to make contributions. I think you both may have forgotten the basic premise on Wikipedia which is to "assume good faith" on the part of others. -- Classmusic ( talk) 05:07, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
-- Classmusic ( talk) 15:14, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
Your almost-instinct turned out to be right - Classmusic/Cohler belong to the same person. I've blocked Cohler indefinitely, and left a warning for Classmusic on their talk page. As for the Cohler article, Voceditenore and yourself are welcome to look it over for any bias that may have been introduced by the socks; while we can't prove a conflict of interest, I'm not prepared to assume good faith on the behalf of a user who abused multiple accounts and lied about it. So, until Classmusic replies to my warning (as I'm sure they have something to say), I've told them not to edit the article at hand. Aside from that, everything should go smoothly. Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Give me a shout if you have any questions. Cheers, m.o.p 18:15, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Hm, I'm not a fan, I'm afraid. I saw his Ines de Castro in Newcastle some years ago and didn't like it. I have the programme somewhere but have never felt inclined to write it up for WP. What I've heard of his on the radio didn't enthrall me either. More to my taste are The Death of Klinghoffer, The Tales of Hoffmann and Béatrice et Bénédict which I shall be seeing seriatim on Mon-Wed next week. BTW, why is he James MacMillan (composer)? There are lots of James McMillans but no other James MacMillan. -- Guillaume Tell 17:44, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
It looks notable enough to me. However, it is clearly copied from this (as I'm sure Voceditenore would spot), and a polite warning about copyvio is necessary (maybe this was why the article was deleted previously?). Also, Wardrop is blue-linked three times in close proximity, all of them redirected to Oliver Wardrop, so help on overlinking and piping links seems also to be needed. The status of the images also needs checking ... -- Guillaume Tell 18:46, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi Almost-instinct,
I'm part of a team that is researching ways to help Wikipedia editors find interesting content to contribute to Wikipedia. More specifically, we are investigating whether content from news sources can be used to enhance Wikipedia editing. We have created a tool, called wikiFeed, that allows you to specify Twitter and/or RSS feeds from news sources that are interesting to you. wikiFeed then helps you make connections between those feeds and Wikipedia articles. We believe that using this tool may be a lot of fun, and may help you come up with some ideas on how to contribute to Wikipedia in ways that interest you. Please participate! To do so, complete this survey and follow this link to our website. Once you're there, click the "create an account" link to get started.
For more information about wikiFeed, visit our project page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask via my talk page, or by email at wikifeedcc@gmail.com. We appreciate your time and hope you enjoy playing with wikiFeed!

It certainly would! Didn't we discuss this some time ago? I have a photocopy of it somewhere but I think that I couldn't pin down the date it appeared in the TLS and/or I got side-tracked and/or worried about what, if anything, to quote, and/or you name it, so nothing got done. Likewise, I think I said I'd try to précis each of the contributions, but ... da capo.... -- Guillaume Tell 17:43, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

I'm writing to members of WikiProject Opera who have been active on the talk page over the last year. We currently have a proposal to add infoboxes about individual operas to their articles. As this would involve a fairly major change from our current practice, and lead to a potentially lengthy transition, it would be helpful to hear the views from as many project members as possible. The discussion is at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera#Opera infoboxes. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 09:00, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Ghost Patrol (opera) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

On 29 March 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Ghost Patrol (opera), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the first production of Ghost Patrol, a chamber opera composed by Stuart MacRae, won the 2013 South Bank Sky Arts Award for Opera? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ghost Patrol (opera). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi A-I, I'm writing to members who participated in the March 2013 discussions about the possibility of developing an opera infobox. We now have a reasonably stable and usable box with examples of how it would look in articles at Template:Infobox opera and a new discussion re its potential addition to the project's Article Guide as an option for opera articles. The discussion is at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera#Opera Infobox update. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 07:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Dug out my programme without much effort and filled in the roles, plus added a ref. Incidentally, the programme declares that the WNO production was the first production outside London - might be worth adding somewhere. NB I'm dubious about mixing recordings in with the stage performance columns, especially as there's a recordings paragraph lower down the article. I suggest a different table, such as the one in La_donna_del_lago and elsewhere. Off to Glyndebourne ( Hippolyte et Aricie) and Bayreuth (Dutchman, Tannhãuser) next week.... Best.

To do so, complete this survey and follow this link to our website. Once you're there, click the "create an account" link to get started.
For more information about wikiFeed, visit our project page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask via my talk page, or by email at wikifeedcc@gmail.com. We appreciate your time and hope you enjoy playing with wikiFeed!

Hello! Thanks for commenting on User talk:EricCable/OperaCarolina. I have responded to your comments there. Eric Cable | Talk 13:47, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
Happy Holidays, Almost-instinct! And a big thank you from me for your help at the Opera Project, especially with your trusty anti-puff broom. May you have a wonderful music-filled Christmas and a very happy new year. Voceditenore ( talk) 11:37, 22 December 2012 (UTC) |
I suspect you'll find this a tough nut to crack . I'm now going to sit back and observe the antics from afar. It's actually quite funny in a way. I'm off to deepest darkest Tuscany on Friday and back on Twelfth Night, but might peek in while I'm away. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 16:56, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
the dispute was resolved. If you would please undo your last edit. to JGVR ( talk) 17:20, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
those of us that were actually involved in it have come to terms and are in agreement.... JGVR ( talk) 09:24, 29 December 2012 (UTC) JGVR ( talk) 09:24, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
Letting you know:
Need more stuff for your watchlist when you get back? :) I've taken my red pencil to the recently added schlock at Rachel Santesso and left a note on the talk page. The editor in question is pretty obviously COI, not to mention their rather indicative username. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 09:35, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
I assume you've seen who the major "contributor" to this article is? The book he keeps plugging is due out in March and he's not getting in there until then, harrumph ;}. Voceditenore ( talk) 19:33, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
It certainly would! Didn't we discuss this some time ago? I have a photocopy of it somewhere but I think that I couldn't pin down the date it appeared in the TLS and/or I got side-tracked and/or worried about what, if anything, to quote, and/or you name it, so nothing got done. Likewise, I think I said I'd try to précis each of the contributions, but ... da capo.... -- Guillaume Tell 17:43, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
I've tried to expiate my edit-conflicting sins by creating South Bank Sky Arts Award (to make the hook look better) . I've nominated your article as a DYK at Template:Did you know nominations/Ghost Patrol (opera). I'll keep the nomination on watch, so I can answer any reviewer's questions, nit-picks, etc.. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 17:00, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
I'm writing to members of WikiProject Opera who have been active on the talk page over the last year. We currently have a proposal to add infoboxes about individual operas to their articles. As this would involve a fairly major change from our current practice, and lead to a potentially lengthy transition, it would be helpful to hear the views from as many project members as possible. The discussion is at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera#Opera infoboxes. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 09:00, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Ghost Patrol (opera) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Agne Cheese/ Wine 17:20, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
Have a great time - say hello to sunshine and warmth and all that. I hate to think of the sinking feeling you will be feeling when you turn your computer on when you get back...... ;-) almost- instinct 20:10, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
On 29 March 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Ghost Patrol (opera), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the first production of Ghost Patrol, a chamber opera composed by Stuart MacRae, won the 2013 South Bank Sky Arts Award for Opera? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ghost Patrol (opera). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi A-I, I'm writing to members who participated in the March 2013 discussions about the possibility of developing an opera infobox. We now have a reasonably stable and usable box with examples of how it would look in articles at Template:Infobox opera and a new discussion re its potential addition to the project's Article Guide as an option for opera articles. The discussion is at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera#Opera Infobox update. Best, Voceditenore ( talk) 07:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Dug out my programme without much effort and filled in the roles, plus added a ref. Incidentally, the programme declares that the WNO production was the first production outside London - might be worth adding somewhere. NB I'm dubious about mixing recordings in with the stage performance columns, especially as there's a recordings paragraph lower down the article. I suggest a different table, such as the one in La_donna_del_lago and elsewhere. Off to Glyndebourne ( Hippolyte et Aricie) and Bayreuth (Dutchman, Tannhãuser) next week.... Best.

I have not only forgotten my wikipedia password, the associated email account appears to be no longer part of my life. Is there any way I can get into my wikipedia account again? I can't think what I could do to prove that I'm me :/
