Too many red links?
I think we have too many red links here. It's worth putting in red links when you intend to write an article on the subject, otherwise it's usually better not to do it. Thanks. -- Klein zach  22:48, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Singers who...
Should this list really include EVERYONE who has sung in more than one BRO production, without regard to WHAT they have sung? That will include some people without musical careers at all. Serial-choristers, serial-cameos, serial one-liners. Just asking! SingingZombie (talk) 09:31, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Unhelpful
Several editors are engaged in an unhelpful contest of adding name after name to this article (and removing some) to score points with each other. This is a semi-professional opera company that's been performing for only two years, with zero mainstream press coverage and virtually none in the specialised media (apart from the self-published Opera Today). If taken to Articles for deletion, there is a good chance that it would be deleted. Instead of indulging in this silliness, spend your time properly referencing this article. The addition of multiple non-notable singers, conductors, scenery painters etc. to this article simply serves to underline the dubious notability of the company itself and is very counter-productive. I am also going to remove the counter-productive 'peacockery' of "an award-winning portrait and landscape painter" unless evidence from a reliable source of significant awards is provided.

 * OK! I have removed all the extraneous details.  Now the article is just about the right size for BRO.  SingingZombie (talk) 16:03, 24 December 2009 (UTC)


 * That was an extremely unhelpful edit and I have reverted it. You removed two references and information about the company's premiere performance. There is an argument for removing the excessive listing of non-notable performers, but not the rest. Your edit was particularly inappropriate and disruptive during an active articles for deletion discussion (Articles for deletion/Brooklyn Repertory Opera) Voceditenore (talk) 16:18, 24 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Suture self! SingingZombie (talk) 16:50, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
