Nano Riantiarno edit

  • ... that Nano Riantiarno wrote "operas" about white snakes, cockroaches, and constipation?

  • Size/referencing/etc. look good. However, I'm a little iffy about the hook - are the Cockroach Opera and the Constipation Opera actually about these subjects? Isn't it just the titles? Roscelese (talkcontribs) 16:55, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Metaphorically, but the context is not in the article. How about ALT1 "... that Nano Riantiarno's "opera" titles include white snakes, cockroaches, and constipation?"

It seems less syntactically and semantically pleasing (I think it's the irregular use of "include"). Something like:
ALT2: ... that Nano Riantiarno's works include the Cockroach Opera, the White Snake Opera, and the Constipation Opera?

Having Opera so many times seems pointless. How about ALT3 ... that Nano Riantiarno's works include the Cockroach, White Snake, and Constipation "operas"? Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:26, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
I think that's good. Roscelese (talkcontribs) 04:55, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
I've removed excessive "the"s from ALT3. Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:14, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
