More?

Need more? I could mention his itinerant later career. How do you count? I get 886 characters so far? -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:19, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's 908, which is fine. - Dank (push to talk) 22:40, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1858

I'm not sure that JennyOz's changes today are correct. What was there before tracks the article's language. My understanding is that the laws/rules relaxed more gradually. I would suggest going back to: ...eased by 1858 when he premiered his first full-length operetta, Orphée aux enfers (Orpheus in the Underworld). -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:08, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When I was working on the blurb, I saw this potential issue, but decided to do nothing for just this reason ... that there might have been gradual changes in addition to the obvious one. JennyOz, would you prefer a change to the article text as well as the blurb text? - Dank (push to talk) 19:21, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
