 * Delete self-promotion, sources are about the opera company, not him. Reywas92 Talk 22:53, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep – It seems incongruous that the founder of a notable opera company should not be considered notable. The subject's objective achievements do not outweigh his deplorable tendency for promotional writing. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:03, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak keep and improve. While there is a lot of self-promotional material that needs to be removed, he is still notable as the founder of a notable opera company. Another problem with the article, though, is that some of the sources might be fabricated-for example, I couldn't find the britannica article. --gdfusion (talk&#124;contrib) 13:46, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
