 * Symbol question.svg I can take the German sources in good faith, but things like the birth date are not cited in the arcticle. Otherwise it's new and long enuf. Cheers Kingoflettuce (talk) 10:48, 7 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Oops, I left her with the birth date of the model ... --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:42, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

QPQ: Neubauer could be given a small description like "Austrian operatic mezzo-soprano Margit Neubauer" as well as Cesare. Other than that, I think the DYK is well-written.Tintor2 (talk) 18:26, 9 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Would "Austrian" make her more interesting? Mezzo-soprano would need to be linked, and then not be the first link in the hook. I'd rather not to lose readers not interested in opera right in the beginning, or even in the middle. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:44, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

Not sure how many reviewers we need exactly... Kingoflettuce (talk) 12:52, 10 June 2017 (UTC)


 * One, you! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:59, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
 * But there's Tintor2 2 ;/ in any case I believe this is good to go. (See above) CheersKingoflettuce (talk) 08:25, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg I came to promote this but looking at the source (#3), the word "Sesto" is not included on the page. And how can you state that a performance in 1978 is "at the beginning" of her 39 year stint, when that started in 1977? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:01, 19 June 2017 (UTC)


 * It's on page 2 of the article, - I tried to use a function "All on one page" but it doesn't work. - My English, sorry. Would "in the beginning" be better? Opera counts in seasons, so 1977/1978 is the first season, and I'd say that first of 39 is still the beginning, but am open to better wording. I want to include that enormous time somehow, - don't recall any longer one. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:46, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
