Seeking neutrality check on Paolo Petrocelli
Hi, I'm affiliated with this article and it has a paid tag at the top, even though it went through AfC. I would like someone to review it for any neutrality, bias, or promotion issues. Thank you so much. DubaiBaton (talk) 17:46, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
'Do not archive' sections here
I suggest we review the need for the instruction "DoNotArchiveUntil 11:27, 31 August 2029 (UTC)" for some sections here on this talk page. First, I can't see its need for the section "#Many new illustrations from Ricordi now available" which incidentally lacks User:Voceditenore's plain text notice. The section "#Almanacco Amadeus – Che disastro!", should never habeen tagged like this. Comments? Suggestions? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:52, 6 February 2026 (UTC)

- Sorry but this talk page is not for article proposals. Is this copied from a source with copyright? Then remove it instantly. If you wrote it yourself, I suggest you create an account, and then put this in a sandbox, or you place it in Draft:Erhard Rom, and we can discuss. Please get rid of all the bolding, - only the article name should be bold. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:43, 11 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: @~2026-93287-9: I moved the content to Draft:Erhard Rom. If this was copypasted from somewhere you will need to remove that and rewrite it using your own words. Best.4meter4 (talk) 18:26, 11 February 2026 (UTC)

Eyes needed on voice type articles
There is an anonymous editor adding strange content to the voice type pages. The editor was blocked (see User talk:~2026-44126-1) but is now edit warring under a different account at the tenor page. I've reported it at WP:ANI as a block evasion, but in the meantime please keep an eye on soprano, tenor, contralto, etc. The content being added isn't in the offline book sources or online materials cited on the page which is conscerning since they remain the inline citation materials on the page. This makes it look like that content is in those sources, but it isn't, which is a big problem (ie source misrepresentation, false citations, etc.)4meter4 (talk) 03:48, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
