GA Reassessment

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch
This article has undergone a reassessment as part of the GA sweeps performed by the Good Article Project Quality taskforce in order to ensure that it still meets the requirements for Good Article status.

At this point, I believe that there are significant problems with the article relating to breadth of coverage. I looked through other opera-related GAs, and I see that they include such sections as "Synopsis" and "Performance history". These are absent from this article. I am particularly concerned that the article does not include a summary of the opera. Currently, the article gives minimal information, much of which violated WP:LEAD because it is placed in the lead section and is not found elsewhere in the article.

I feel that it would take quite a bit of effort to bring this article up to the current GA standards. However, the goal of any Good Article reassessment should be to help improve the quality of the article, so I will place this on hold for one week to see how much progress can be made in that time.

A week has passed, and the synopsis is still incomplete. No information about performance history has been added, and much of the information is still present only in the lead (and could stand to be expanded). I am delisting the article, but I hope that people will continue to work on it and nominate it at WP:GAN again when these concerns have been addressed.
