Template talk:Dvořák operas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template falls within the scope of the Opera WikiProject, a collaboration to develop Wikipedia articles on operas and opera terminology, opera composers, librettists and singers, directors and managers, companies and houses, and recordings. The project talk page is a place to discuss issues, identify areas of neglect and exchange ideas. New members are very welcome!

[edit] Template's inconsistencies

I think this template needs a small amount of work:

  1. The hyphens for ranges of years should be en dashes (see: MOS:NUM#Dates);
  2. The format of the line for Dimitrij is inconsistent: it has a hyphen instead of an opening bracket, and the year "1895" is not mentioned in the article—what happened in 1895 with the work? Also: according to the article, the premiere was in 1892; the fact that Dvořák began the work in 1891 is not relevant for the navigation box (I think);
  3. The line for Armida does not comply with MOS:NUM#Longer_periods; but again, those years are not supported by the article which says "1904".

As this is not just an article but a template wich appears in several articles, I thought I mention my points here for review instead of just jumping in and changing it. Michael Bednarek (talk) 14:42, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
