Who is Andrée Gress? Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 22:54, 7 October 2010 (UTC) Sorry I meant to ask which "other reference works" does his/her biographical entry appear? Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 22:59, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I was aware of Gresse (Grove, Wolff, etc), it was the other person I was unsure about. Thank you for restoring the edit.

Name of main character
New Grove Opera (1997), Irvine, Harding, Wolff (Un demi-siècle d'Opéra-Comique) all have Legrand (small g) ; I would suggest that the article should reflect this. Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 16:54, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have downloaded both versions of the score available at IMSLP, but unfortunately they both have all character names fully capitalised (FANNY LEGRAND), so no solution there. Maybe someone at WikiProject Opera with access to Grove online could solve this dispute.--Francesco Malipiero (talk) 18:14, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Daudet's novel has "Fanny Legrand". I've changed the article accordingly. --Folantin (talk) 18:22, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Why a "List of productions" rather than being under "Performance history"???
Why do we have such a table-based list separate from the "Production history" section which conventionally follows the first main paragraph?

There is repetition there, so what is the point? In another article which I recently worked on - King Roger - someone put a "flag" as to why there was not a prose narrative rather than just a bulleted list. I put it all in prose form. Same concept applies here.

 * I thought it was hard to read in prose form when all these details are included. I tried it in a prose form initially and didn't think it worked very well, which is why I decided to try a table list at the bottom of the article as a way to add all of these details, that would allow the prose to be streamlined. I don't really see it as such a big deal, if there is some overlap with the prose section. It's one of those operas that hasn't got a lot of productions, so having a table with the details as an appendix at the bottom is not going to get out of hand. --Robert.Allen (talk) 04:52, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

recent productions
A lot of useful information has been added to the article. Apologies if you are still filling it in, but the performances end in 1979; there was Wexford in 2001 and St Etienne in November 2003, both staged. (I can give references if these are needed). Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 21:47, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing these out. I had not yet stumbled across them. --Robert.Allen (talk) 10:33, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
