Talk:List of Romantic composers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Former featured article candidate This article is a former featured list candidate. Please view its sub-page to see why the nomination failed. Once the objections have been addressed you may resubmit the article for featured list status.

Please be careful that a link goes where you think it does... lots of those in the Late Romantic Composers sections, even those that aren't redlinks, don't. Could be confusing for a reader, I'd think. Schissel : bowl listen 16:47, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Composers removed from page

These composers have been removed in an attempt to consolidate the list. There is a reference to the standard reportoire list; if you can find a similar list, please reference it before adding one of these composers back onto the list. Thank you. Dafoeberezin3494 16:53, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What?

All the other period composer lists contain redlinks and not-so-terribly famous composers. I think the lists should be exhaustive of composers who are notable enough to be on Wikipedia. If you want to make a separate "standard repertoire" list, I think it should be done on another page. Mak (talk) 02:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

  • This was an uncompleted project by me in the summer. My sources were ridiculed by User:Musikfabrik and I basically stopped the project. I really wouldn't care if this page were completely re-done, although I don't see how your solution would be any different than a category. Then again, we could just merge this list into the category... Dafoeberezin3494 02:48, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Well, part of the point of lists is that they can contain redlinks. Which, to be honest, I am adding now, since I'm trying to get broader exposure for women in music, it's actually part of my work on the List of female composers. Which I was sort of goaded into by Musikfabrik, strangely. I think perhaps the list in its current incarnation should be moved to a more clear title, which reflects that it's reflecting the standard repertory, and have a fuller list under this title.

I removed the notice about the standard repertoire lists. Feel free to do anything you wish to this page, maybe you could put the composers listed above back on it? The only thing I would really like to see is that they are annotated (making them more useful than a category!) Dafoeberezin3494 03:23, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
