C-Class
Hi! I have rated this article C-class. I think it would be approaching B-class soon. Does anyone know were we can add a sound file (like the one in Chopin's Nocturne Op.9)? --Edward130603 (talk) 15:47, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Lento or Andante sostenuto?
Hi guys, for No.1, are you sure it is marked Lento? The G. Schirmer edition (edited by Rafael Joseffy) has it as Andante sostenuto.--Edward130603 (talk) 15:55, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Of course, I'm going by my Paderewski edition, so I'm not sure which is the proper one. ɳ OCTURNE ɳ OIR  talk //  contribs 18:48, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Schott Music also has it as Andante sostenuto.--Edward130603 (talk) 20:30, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Feedback from RFF
The first paragraph of the lede contains the word 'nocturne(s)' eight times; I know that this is difficult to avoid, but with rephrasing that could be reduced somewhat. The lede contains information that is not given elsewhere in the document - e.g. about George Sand. The lede should be a summary of the whole article - this is a GA requirement. "considered to be one of the better nocturnes" - by whom? "are definite signs of "progress"" - quotations must always be followed by an immediate reference (GA requirement) - not at the end of the sentence I don't know much about the specific topic, but I feel that the article could be more 'broad in scope' - another GA requirement. For example, information about significant performances, uses in contemporary music (derivatives?), or other appropriate details. From a very brief search in Google Books, for example, I found info here about copies of a 'proof stage' of the work. Those are some sample specific comments; in working towards GA, I recommend the following course of action; Have a look through this GA 'cheat sheet' for the kind of issues you will need to address; Look at other, similar, featured articles and copy the style. For example, Symphony No. 3 (Górecki). Request a peer review. I wish you the very best of luck. Chzz ►  03:38, 31 May 2009 (UTC) --Edward130603 (talk) 11:20, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
