[edit] Tagging Classical

Hello...just a quick favour: could you add the tag |composition=yes when you tag the WP:CM banner to a musical composition? (See Wikipedia:WikiProject Classical music/Compositions task force) Saves me having to do it when I stumble over the piece! Centy – reply• contribs – 19:07, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

P.S. Note about italics - my view is that if a nickname is in italics, the brackets also have to be to avoid ugly spaces. However given that AWB thinks this is not MoS, it may be that we don't italicise nicknames (even though I think we should given titles for books and songs are italicised).

Just to let you know that I realise {{Classical|composition=yes}} is quite a lot to type so that's why I've began to add them via AWB. No need for you to do it by hand! I shall hopefully soon fully utilise every feature of the Classical banner (ie tag all stub articles as such as well all those requiring attention). Meanwhile, I think we should work on rewriting articles that look like they've either been lifted straight from a set of program notes (complete with peacock words) or badly translated.

[edit] Dvořák operas

Hi. Just a note to say that members of the Opera Project have long been in agreement that it is helpful to have all articles on individual operas in Category:Operas as well as sub-cats by composer and language, so I've reverted your cat deletions. This apparent over-categorisation is detailed in the Project's Guidelines and has been discussed on its Talk page, but feel free to raise it there again if you want fuller and better particulars. --GuillaumeTell 16:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

I see you have put the Classical Music banner on The Stubborn Lovers. I'm a participant in both projects and regularly put their banners on articles, but it's worth noting that we try not to overlap. In the case of operas we put them under the opera project. Other articles, on conductors for example, go under CM. Hope this helps. Regards. --Kleinzach (talk) 09:35, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Symphony No. 3 (Beethoven)

David,

What you did is absolutely fine with me, but the user that removed my contribution did not say anything about it and he/she did it in several articles I contributed to, not only in Classical Music related articles. I call that vandalism as well. I left a comment in his talk page, I am sure you can see it.

[edit] Help request

Hello David! I added references to the articles of classical music "to-do" list (Furiant, String Quartet No. 12 (Dvořák)). I removed "unreferenced" tags, should I remove the articles also from the list? And (maybe it'll seem stupid to you) in the case of Dvořák's Quartet only part of the article was saved... In the "edit the page" section you can find it whole, but when I used "preview", there was only one section... I hope it will be easy to fix it, but I simply don't know how... I'm novice... Thank you for your time and help Vejvančický (talk) 16:14, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you and sorry... I'm more librarian... Than technical type. Vejvančický (talk) 23:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
