What makes the Bach Cantatas Website a reliable source? It describes itself as "an international collective project, being compiled from various postings about the subject, most of which have been sent to the Bach Mailing Lists." How is a compilation of mailing list postings a reliable source, per Wikipedia guidelines? - Dravecky (talk) 06:45, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You are right, I would prefer other sources, and I also found mistakes on the website. But bach-cantatas is in English, - a great advantage for German singers of that time that are nor covered much otherwise. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:23, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
