Important Original Casting Omission In 1958 the jazz vocalist and Broadway veteran Adelaide Hall was cast and signed up to appear in the show and share the lead with Pat Suzuki Newspaper reference from the Washington Afro American 12 August 1958 I have tried to include this relevant piece of information on the actual Flower Drum Song Wikipedia page Unfortunately it has been deleted twice by a reader who goes by the name of Wehwalt who appears to feel the information is not relevant I totally disagree with their opinion as without this piece of information it is rewriting history and I believe that is something Wikipedia does not wish to encourage Surely by adding this information it may prompt another reader to expand on the reason why Miss Hall left the cast to return to the UK I would therefore like to bring this to the attention of WIKIPEDIA At the moment the CASTING section in this article does not give a true reflection of all the actors who were originally cast in the roles thereby I believe it is rewriting history and gives a false impression I find it strange that Wehwalt felt the need to edit the heading to my explanation about including this relevant piece of information above Is it now practice to edit the TALK sections as well I have brought this matter to the attention of WIKIPEDIA regarding the omitted mention of Adelaide Hall from the Wikipedia article as it does not give a true reflection of who was originally cast and signed for the production The matter of Miss Hall leaving the cast could be cited as unknown e g Adelaide Hall left the cast before the production was staged reason unknown Surely that would not confuse any reader who reads the article The fact that the producer and the director of the show and Rogers and Hammerstein cast Miss Hall in the role is I believe extremely significant I rest my case Preceding unsigned comment added by Eurovisa please sign your talk page messages by adding four tildes to the end of the message like this That will automatically add your name and a date time stamp I will comment on your proposals at the bottom of the page I have no great objection to what you originally wrote so long as you are able to cite the second part of it The way you had it the second time left the question of her participation in the play hanging I think it would make a very useful addition to the article But everything must be cited Regarding the synopsis I think changing the part about being a girl as you propose would be overly stiff The synopsis is written in a more popular tone then the rest of the article as I think of the typical reader as someone who is going to the theater and it s hastily reviewing the plot in advance of seeing it for the first time But certainly we can discuss all these things Regarding the format my colleague Ssilvers can speak to this better than I thought I believe it s dictated by convention at WP MUSICALS However some variation had to be made due to the fact that we have two different plots over 40 years apart This article is about the play the film has its own I could see moving the critical reception section to the end we ve done that for some of the other R H musicals Sorry it was unintentional please feel free to put it back I am editing from my iPhone I have restored it It looks like I did it somehow but I have no idea how I did Please accept my apologies Wehwalt I think you were responding with respect to synopsis format critical reception to some old comments above that were not made by Eurovisa Now that I have moved this discussion to the bottom of the page it should be clearer and easier for us to have a discussion Dear Eurovisa Welcome to Wikipedia Here s what you proposed putting into the article Jazz singer and veteran Broadway star Adelaide Hall was signed to share the lead wi
