Repertoire performed

I have moved this section here for further work and verification. The referencing is extremely poor, and the listing of "covered" roles is inappropriate. Voceditenore (talk) 08:57, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Name and date of birth

I have removed Vasmatzian from the subject's name field. There is no evidence whatsoever that this is her legal surname, or even birth name. She certainly never uses this on any of her official websites or biographies. Note that on her official website she only states that this as her mother's maiden name and in fact spells it "Basmadjian". The addition of that surname as well as the frequently changed alleged birth date appear to be based on this web page (although it is not cited in the article). This website is based in Russia, is not the official Eurovision website, and uses information "gathered from fans around the world". It is not a reliable source for a biography of a living person. If a reference cannot be found for her birth date in a reliable source, I am going to remove it altogether. Voceditenore (talk) 08:19, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
