Just to be clear .... edit

Upon creating this article, there has been an immediate header tag placed upon this article that would question the notability and reliable sources for its content. To rest assure any compliance expectation with WP requirements, this subject far exceeds the criteria for musicians: WP:MUSIC. Whether or not inline citations are not exactly fulfilled within the guidelines is superfluous for a "stub" article. The text and context claims can be found within the cited sources and online with further research. Nothing is stated with intent to defame or state false claim against the subject in keeping with the policies of WP BLP. Rather than place a "drive by" header tag; try and improve the article by researching the subject and its sources. Thank you. Maineartists (talk) 05:25, 7 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Oh, come on. Really? Click on them and find them. No one likes a "drive by" tag editor. Maineartists (talk) 05:54, 7 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
I don't know what your "agenda" is .. or even why ... but the subject is listed in the Grove Book of Opera Singers several times. Do the research. No "indepth (sic) commentary"?! since when is that a requirement for WP inclusion for notability? the subject has already met the guidelines ... and then some. What is your problem here? "Fleeting mention"?! you need to re-educate yourself with what is "notable" for inclusion as a general subject article at WP. Maineartists (talk) 06:09, 7 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
