Opera[edit]
Self nomination. This article is very in-depth, and thoroughly discusses all of the important points of opera (history, terminology etc). It also meets the requirements of WP:FACR. ChrischTalk 15:07, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- While I very much appreciate the above comments, I must state that this article is currently undergoing major revision and is nowhere near ready yet. Therefore, I think the current FA candidacy should be withdrawn. Cheers --Folantin 16:04, 15 June 2007 (UTC) (involved editor)[reply]
I agree that this article is not nearly ready for a GA nomination, much less an FA nomination. It is under-referenced, incomplete, has some repetition and, as Folantin says, currently unstable. It's got pretty good prose, however, and is a reasonably solid B, I'd say. -- Ssilvers 17:42, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I too agree. Some constructive criticism: more citations. Cheers, ~ Wikihermit 02:45, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
