I shall review this. Schwede 66 08:17, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's new, long enough, and within policy. Alt0 hook fact is confirmed. ALT1 hook fact is AGF as the source sits behind a paywall. Either way, I find ALT0 much more interesting but it's almost at the length limit. I've proposed ALT0a which is just a tad shorter by leaving out the appointment date. QPQ has been done. Earwig is happy. This is good to go; well done! Schwede 66 08:55, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with ALT0a. Corachow (talk) 12:40, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In source #3 (March 6), Tissi says he is leaving, but as of April 10 he is still listed as a Principal on the Bolshoi's website [5] and [6]. The theater was quick to remove Smirnova when she left, so I wonder if there is a source on Tissi's official status. (Thanks for creating the page BTW).Every-leaf-that-trembles (talk)

@Every-leaf-that-trembles: There isn't any as far as I'm aware. I think most/all foreigners who left Bolshoi due to the invasion are still on the website, and some of them already have full-time gigs elsewhere. Corachow (talk) 17:51, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tissi is no longer on the Bolshoi website. Corachow (talk) 13:49, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
