- I found the wording "14 part in 15 summers" to be confusing. May I offer the following alternative:
- alt 1 ...
that Gerd Nienstedt performed 14 parts, including the dragon in Siegfried, over 15 summers at the Bayreuth Festival?Cbl62 (talk) 23:28, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
- alt 1 ...
- I think "parts" is not the best word here. Suggesting some further minor refinements:
- ALT2: ... that Gerd Nienstedt performed 14 different roles, including the dragon in Siegfried, during 15 consecutive summers at the Bayreuth Festival?
- I thought it added interest to specify that this was 15 years in a row, not a random 15 years. —BlueMoonset (talk) 05:09, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

- The alt 2 hook phrases it best. That hook is short enough, interesting enough, and is supported by an in-line citation to this German-language source (good faith assumed). The article is long enough (> 9,000 characters), new enough (Aug. 10), neutral and uses in-line citations. Spot-check finds no policy problems. QPQ satisfied. Cbl62 (talk) 06:04, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
