  • Please fix the hooks, there's a red link in both of them at the moment. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:40, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
Currently the article says that Taina's "musical career has spanned genres as diverse as Afro-Caribbean music, flamenco, hardcore punk and opera", however, there is no reference to her opera career other than "She also studied opera with local voice teacher Alma Mora." Did she actually perform opera during her career or just study it? This needs to be clarified since it is mentioned in the hook. Otherwise it looks good. Length is good. Checked for copyvios. QPQ has been done. Kaldari (talk) 00:09, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
Thanks @Kaldari:. I added more about Asili's public performances with an opera company and included references. Morganfitzp (talk) 01:28, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
