replies: text: Amen.  A story about a book, with no discussion of the plot?  This reads like a fan-zine article, being all about the ripples, and not the stone that actually landed in the pond. I'd write something, but I've never read the book.--Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 15:08, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

message: What is the source for the (highly implausible) statement that the play is an inspiration for the films Pretty Woman and Moulin Rouge?
For 'Moulin Rouge!': The love between a writer and a courtisane, set in Paris and she dies in the end because of cholera. Reason enough I think?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.131.149.222 (talk) 23:54, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Synopsis? 

message: Antony Tudor , under the section Major Works , mentions 
a 1951 ballet titled Lady of the Camellias . However , this 
related article page does not mention the Tudor piece ... 
 This page 
which would make a convenient internet reference , 
gives Some detail about Tudor's 1951 ballet ... 
confirming that it is based on the Dumas fils novel , 
observing that the accompanying music was selected 
(mostly) from 3 Verdi's operas (and Sicilian Vespers) , 
citing a reference Book for the synopsis details , 
and providing other useful facts , if anyone wishes 
to compose an entry here . 
A brief mention , similar to the 3 current entries 
under the Ballet section of this article , might read ... 
Lady of the Camellias , choreographed by Antony Tudor 
using selected music of Giuseppe Verdi , was first 
performed in 1951 by the New York City Ballet . 
The editors are welcome to make such changes as they see fit .

message: It's not possible to regret something that might have been. Regret is only used in regard to things that actually happened. Maybe this part of the synopsis should be rephrased.

message: In the 'summary and analysis' section the articles says ""consumption", was a 19th-century euphemism for syphilis.". I think this is wrong. Consumption  was the term used for tuberculosis. 82.1.16.12 (talk) 11:38, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The article says "'consumption', was a 19th-century euphemism for syphilis", which is supported by the source cited. It means that they were too proper to talk about people having syphilis, so they called it consumption (aka tuberculosis). —PermStrump(talk) 06:13, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

message: As a French title this should follow the French orthotypography which is La Dame aux camélias, not La Dame aux Camélias. Kintaro (talk) 21:33, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. It ought to be moved to La Dame aux camélias. Unfortunately, that will require a formal request at WP:RM. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 15:57, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lower case on ''camélias'' 

message: A bit currently reads "Duplessis's publicized cause of death, "consumption", was a 19th-century euphemism for tuberculosis, as opposed to the more common meaning of tuberculosis." which is obviously absurd. I can see that it originally read "syphilis", which makes sense, but I'm afraid that I'm not a sophisticated enough Wikipedia user to know how to revert the edit.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pdgillen (talk • contribs) 11:24, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
