Talk:Sergei Taneyev

Life
The first paragraph in this section needs to be rewritten. The syntax makes in unclear whether what follows is about Alexander or Sergei. Erogerg (talk) 19:17, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've just changed "he" to "Sergei". Does that do it? By the way, I've also changed the link in the title of this section to what I think you meant. Just linking to Life gets to something a bit bigger :) --Stfg (talk) 00:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

List of string quartets by Sergei Taneyev
The list should be merged. There's no need for a separate article for such a short list. Kelly Martin 04:32, May 22, 2005 (UTC)


 * The reason why I created the Sergei Taneyev string quartets as a separate page is that it relates principally to the string quartet page, which is becoming a major compendium of data on the many string quartets and their composers. As such it is getting very large, and Schissel thinks that page itself is getting too long - I'm inclined to agree.


 * The purpose of the Sergei Taneyev string quartets page - as a separate page - was to include string quartet-specific information for the string quartet page without adding to the bloat. Merging it with the Sergei Taneyev page would confuse the original purpose, and I have not collected information on Taneyev's other compositions, so a merge would distort the Taneyev page's information content.


 * I really do think - for the moment - that separate pages is the way to go. --dcnicholls 05:28, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

Alcoholism
The article mentions (but doesn't reference) Taneyev's supposed alcoholism in his later years. However, I remember reading (have to look it up) about him being a tee-totaller for all of his life. The two don't seem to be compatible, somehow, so which is it? --User:Ilja.nieuwland 15:41, 9 december 2008 (GMT+1)

We should say he was from the Russian Empire
During the time of the Russian Empire, subjects of the Russian Empire were of many nationalities. Using Russian as a description for those from the Russian Empire is no longer done by reliable sources. They say the person is from the Russian Empire, and may further designate the person's ethnicity, but the default descriptor in reliable sources is now from the Russian Empire.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:16, 5 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Except he was Russian and this is not controversial. Mellk (talk) 15:26, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

It his name Sergei, or Sergey
The title of this article gives his name as Sergei. Yet, the first paragraph immediately gives his name as Sergey. Should this be cleaned up, one way or the other, throughout the article?
