vague point  would it help to rephrase the first sentence thus  Biography  Offenbachs father Isaac Juda Eberst born  October  in Offenbach am Main took the name Offenbach in  when he was already in Deutz where he had moved in Yon JeanClaude Jacques Offenbach Editions Gallimard Paris   The alternative would appear to be a long explanation of the Napoleonic edict     Thank you that sounds good although I would prefer a link to an explanatory article or some footnote but maybe thats just me One more thing the italics around his fathers name and the bolding of Offenbach ought to be dropped       Play titles  Confusingly in other stage works three of the play titles with a Wikipedia link are no longer spelled the same case as given in the articles about the plays    Can you clarify There are no red links in that section   There arent any red links because the three plays in question are piped links to their English titles CgpBums observation that the French titles in these articles uses different capitalisation is correct We know that the most widely used style of French title capitalisation which is a bit idosyncratic and not cosnsistently applied in French writing is not used in the opera or classical music projects on Wikipedia where a strict but easily understood system is used Other projects are not so strict thats why those articles on the plays use a different spelling     Ah Missed that Shouldnt we be using the English titles After all The Tales of Hoffmann appears just below   Wouldnt that make for an awkward list as we dont have English titles for all these plays     Perhaps but then what is the least bad solution My primary editing instinct tells me that consistency should come first  at least within the article   But at the cost of consistency within the paragraph  shrug Whatever no biggie The list itself is a useful improvement to the article in whichever language the titles are listed      Yes its not a major thing From WikipediaManualofStyleFranceFrenchrelatedWorksofart it seemed that only classical music and opera had opted out of lAcadmie franaise  into Grove no problem     Also visual arts but as we have often remarked this is a classic nowin situation
