Richard Wagner
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because this article is currently a GA. Richard Wagner was a German composer who was well known for his operas and was influential in his works. He also organized the Bayreuth Festival as well. Before we take this to a possible FAC, I would like to have some feedback on how we can improve the article. I think it is ready to be peer reviewed. Comments on all aspects of the article are welcome; the 130th anniversary of his death is on 13 February 2013 and this would be a good TFA for that day.

Note: I agree 13 Feb 2013 would be a good TFA date for this article. But I notice that you are not a contributing editor. The main editor is User:Smerus, who is a longstanding and highly respected editor of music articles, though he has not been too active recently. Have you contacted him, since his expertise will be essential if the article is to be upgraded in the time available? Also, it would be more appropriate for the review to take place after at least some of the necessary work has been done. Brianboulton (talk) 23:59, 22 September 2012 (UTC)


 * All right, then. Since I am not a contributing editor of the article, I will contact Smerus as soon as possible. Thanks, Brianboulton. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 02:41, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
