Note

Meladina appeared here on April 26, 2006 just to make a few corrections into some entries. However almost every day he discovered in the Wikipedia more and more lacunae or inaccurate information. In a month time his involvement in the Wikipedia brought to it 35 completely new articles, as well as an improvement of 34 previously written entries, and furnishing of 32 entries with the images and music examples (all together 101 actions). The idea is to rise the topic Russian opera to higher levels. Many thanks to Kleinzach for his help and support (Meladina, 17:29, 28 May 2006 (UTC))
