Thank you for correcting the article on Carmen Reppel ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:54, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

A few recommendations:
 * If a term is surrounded by brackets it creates a link to an existing article, but only if it is the exact name of that article. We have La Scala, - if you add Milan you get no link.
 * For linked articles, you can omit the addition of "near Cologne", or that "Milan". People who want to know more can click and find out.
 * Please don't use terms like "renowned", "famous" etc. - keep factual.
 * I removed the list of very common composers in the lead, - that could be the same for many singers.
 * Everything in the summary ("lead") has to appear sourced in the body of the article. Please supply a source for the sixty leading parts (I left it, but someone else may delete it) and one for Kobold, - we can't mention something only in the lead.

Happy editing! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:38, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
