[edit] removing "opera oratorios" category

The category "opera oratorios" is bunk; If a work is an oratorio, it's an oratorio, it it's an opera, it's an opera. If we all want to think of oratorio as a sub-category of opera, that's fabulous, but I feel the extra categorization is superfluous and clutters things.

Sorry for my haste the other day... after a conversation with another editor I came to realize that I was acting rather hastily and unilaterally... I'll bring this up over on Wikipedia:WikiProject Opera but for now it's back. Sorry, all! Fred 04:51, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Triple bannering

Among the 'friendly projects' we usually avoid multiple bannering. In this case it's difficult because the composer really did mean it to be half opera and half oratorio. I suggest we leave primary care to 'Contemporary music' and remove the Opera and Classical music banners. OK? --Kleinzach (talk) 08:04, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
