The Operas of the Month for January all celebrated the 200th anniversary of their premieres in 2019.

• Rossini's Eduardo e Cristina lacks an article on several members of its premiere cast, especially Eliodoro Bianchi (pictured) who created the role of Cristina's father, the King of Sweden. The articles on Giovanni Schmidt, who wrote the original libretto, and Andrea Leone Tottola, who adapted it for Rossini, are poorly referenced stubs.

• Spontini's Olimpie whose librettists have articles which need considerable improvement. Charles Brifaut is a stub devoid of inline citations. Michel Dieulafoy is a stub written in poor English and lacks inline citations.

• Donizetti's Il falegname di Livonia needs improved referencing and lacks articles on all members of its premiere cast apart from Giovanni Battista Verger which is referenced to a single source and needs improvement.
