Is it possible to have the reference for this opera not being commonly known in English, please. (All my contributions to this article are from English language sources.) Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 16:23, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not commonly known in English does not refer to the opera itself, but only to its title. There is general consensus among opera contributors to use the original language title as the article title, except when the opera is commonly known in English speaking countries under an English title (e.g. The Marriage of Figaro). I personally do not agree with this policy (I believe the original language title should be used unconditionally, but that's probably because I come from a non-English speaking country), but consensus should be followed, and so the move seems justified to me. --Francesco Malipiero (talk) 17:57, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
