Talk:The Happy Time (musical)

message: Editors have added ensemble/crew members from the Signature production. I have deleted them per "The names of non-notable (i.e., non-bluelinked) ensemble and chorus members, understudies and non-notable production team members (other than directors and choreographers) should be deleted. Only the actors playing principal (significant speaking and singing) roles should be mentioned." See WP:WPMT Article Structure, Productions. JeanColumbia (talk) 00:02, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Cast/Crew members

message: I restored the basic details of the Signature Theatre production as I believe that production meets the requirements of notability. It is a professional production by a well-known regional theater, it is well-documented (that is, WP:VERIFY), and it is one of the few majors revivals of the musical.
What I think unbalanced the article was that too much material was devoted to the Signature production, ("undue weight"). So, per:"The particular topics and facts within an article are not each required to meet the standards of the notability guidelines; instead, article content is governed by other policies and guidelines, such as the policy requiring Verifiability and the guidelines covering the use of reliable sources and of trivia sections.
The undue weight guideline applies to factual content and not just viewpoints. An article should not give undue weight to any aspects of the subject, but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject." (WP:NNC)
I am trying to keep it to brief but essential facts. Hopefully other editors will agree. JeanColumbia (talk) 12:01, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Marie Spartali Stillman

message: These are my sources for the information provided. They come from the 'Greek Gazette' (1982), editor Kyriakos Metaxas (1982), and the material Metaxas collected. The material is from Maria Karavia's article in a Greek magazine (cannot find its name). From Susan Harris who researched Marie Spartali Stillman and forwarded her piece to Kyriakos Metaxas on 13 April 1982. From biographical notes written on 9 August 1955, by D.A.Ionides and sent to Kyriakos Metaxas. D.A. Ionides was the son of Effie Spartali and Ambrose Ionides. Marie Sartali-Stillman was the sister of his grandfather (Demetrios Spartali). One could argue that the sources are not exactly up to standard; I ask editor to be kind with it and allow it to stay - you can tag the article. I will try and be more specific at a later date, but please conisder the information provided correct, it is not original research by me. Politis (talk) 16:35, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Who reported suicide? 

message: The various language versions of the article disagree on where the Sterns lived after leaving Mexico. The English version says that "the Soviets then allowed them to immigrate to Moscow", implying (but not saying explicitly) that they lived in the USSR. Later, "apparently disappointed with their lives in the Soviet Union" plainly states that they lived in the USSR. Yet the German version of the article says "Seit 1957 lebten sie in der Tschechoslowakei, wo Dodd 1990 starb", i.e. "since 1957 they lived in Czechoslovakia, where Dodd died in 1990."
The Russian article says "В 1957 году супруги эмигрировали в Чехословакию, в Прагу. В 1962—1968 годах проживали в Гаване на Кубе. С 1968 года опять в Праге." That is, in 1957 they emigrated to Czechoslovakia, [namely] Prague. In 1962-1968 they lived in Havana, Cuba. Since 1968 back in Prague.
Likewise the NYT obit makes no mention of the Sterns ever living in the USSR, only Prague. Since Prague was never part of the USSR, it would be great if someone could clarify the English version. I don't have access to the source quoted in the English article, but the discrepancy is striking. I also note that the Russian article says the Sterns lived in Cuba in 1962-1968 while the English version says it was 1963-1970.
For what it's worth, a Czech magazine article (Pátek, a weekend magazine of Lidové Noviny from April 2012) about Martha Dodd-Stern claimed that the Sterns could not return to the US even after the charges against them had been dropped because they owed too much in back taxes. No source was identified in the article.  Codegen86 (talk) 18:52, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
