Triple sharp
I am surprised that I never noticed this before, despite many hours with my copy wondering how Hamelin does it! Thanks and best wishes :-) RobertG &#9836; talk 20:59, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi. You might be interested in checking out the brand new Slovak Wikipedians' notice board.

You are welcome to add this notice board to your watchlist, so that you could see when it is updated and thus take part in any projects, initiatives, and improvements relating to articles about Slovakia.

Porin (opera)
Actually Grove says that Porin is "a chivalric opera in the grand-opera tradition". Or do you have better information? -- Kleinzach 23:53, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't know anything at all about this opera but I understand 'chivalric opera in the grand opera tradition' as meaning an opera with knights belonging to the genre of grand opera. If you don't have any special information why not give it the benefit of the doubt? If you don't include it, it then sinks below the radar and nobody notices it any more - that's why it's better to be inclusive (innocent until proven guilty as it were). -- Kleinzach 08:46, 2 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Good. I remember discussing with Buondelmonte whether or not to include the accent in opéra. (I believe the reference works are split on this.) Perhaps we can be more inclusive if we are using the English rather than the French? -- Kleinzach 23:12, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
