message: The synopsis looks like it applies to the first version. It should be updated to the second version, the "standard", with an explanation of the differences. Herbivore (talk) 23:53, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I found this phrase Son giunta! ... Madre, pietosa Vergine – "I've got here! Oh, thank God!" to be not quite correct, you see: Italians and Spaniards were fervient roman catholics during the times that the Opera was created, so I got the feeling that saying "madre, pietosa vergine" to be "oh, thank god" is very misleading. Despite my lack of Italian language, I'm pretty sure that "madre, pietosa vergine" is about the Virgin Mary, which is very important for the catholics (I'm a spanish native speaker, and catholic too, perhaps this sounds an entitlement but I just want to point out a suggestion). The point is to put that phrase like "Mother, pious virgin!".   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caspramio (talk • contribs) 21:37, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

message: The article currently gives the date of the premiere as "22 November [[[Old Style and New Style dates|O.S.]] 10 November] 1862". The other major language Wikipedias only give 10 November, as does the page 1862 in music, and , Opera by , Naxos' The A to Z of Opera on my bookshelf. On the other hand, Handbuch der Oper by  and our infobox give 22 November. Roger Parker in Grove gives "29 October/10 November". Clearly, something's not right. 29 October or 10 November or 22 November – what is it? Google gives 1, 2880, 1320 results for each. I suspect Grove is right and some people assumed that 10 November was an Old Style date and added 12 days which then gave 22 November, where in fact 10 November was New Style, corresponding to 29 October Old Style, 12 days earlier. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 14:05, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: On second thoughts, and considering Google search results, maybe Grove is wrong. That would leave 10 November O.S. (the calendar at that time), equivalent to 22 November in most other countries and in today's calendar. I suggest to follow the majority of sources and use that O.S. date as the date of the premiere. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 00:12, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
