Problems with recent edits

[edit]

May I please ask User:Vienna2 why they have replaced all the properly formatted footnotes and references with undocumented inline urls? And why was the Biography section which had been edited for neutral, encylopedic tone, with proper formatting and linking of opera titles, conductors, singers, etc. (hours of work by other editors) replaced with a messy, completely unformatted, piece of public relations for this singer?. Note I have again removed "future performances". Add them to the article once they have taken place. This is an encyclopedia article, not a newsletter, personal web site, or advertisment for Ms. Caruana. If there is no significant improvement within two days, I am going to revert the biography to a version similar to this [1]. Voceditenore (talk) 18:49, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Current state of the article

[edit]

The formatted and neutrally worded version was restored yesterday by another editor. Since then, I have copy-edited for style, expanded the lead slightly, removed excessive red links, formatted the references so they are no longer bare URLs, added further references and a recordings section. I have also removed the maintenance tags as they no longer apply. User:Vienna2, if you wish to make any additions or copy-edits to this article, please do them individually, respecting the existing formatting and referencing conventions in the surrounding text. Do not remove the entire version and replace it with a completely new version of your own as you have done several times in the past. By doing this you removed all the work of other editors. In future any such wholesale edits will be immediately reverted. Voceditenore (talk) 09:55, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
