 * Symbol possible vote.svg Article new enough, long enough, and within policy guidelines (AGF the close paraphrasing part as the main source is in German); hook short enough, interesting enough, and cited to reliable source. One thing though, given my German isn't great, can you confirm the main source (Großes Sängerlexikon) explicitly states that it was the first Bayreuth Festival in 1876? You and I know it was but the source needs to state it as well, otherwise we'd need a supplementary source. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 10:26, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
 * The source does indeed say that, but I will also add (from Minna Lammert) more sources, and hopefully write about the red-link opera, just not right now ;) - We have some time until 13 August, and I am so proud of Sankt-Bach-Passion today, on Bach's day of death, - want to expand an article on the occasion, have to update the cantatas for tomorrow, and we have the extra load of work caused by new BWV numbers, - can you imagine such a thing? See, and that is only one of many. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:52, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Ian, I added two refs, one in English, and hope you can approve. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:57, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Hook refs verified and cited inline. Rest of review per Ian Rose. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 12:14, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
