Wikipedia

"Kommilitonen!" is the plural of the german Word "Kommilitone" for Student (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kommilitone). I don't know a correct english word to describe a "with-student" or "by-student" or so. "Kommilitone" means exactly a student colleague, from lat. "commilito". --Lkl ★ 08:57, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe "fellow-student(s)"? There are 118 instances of this expression in en.wikipedia, see [1] --GuillaumeTell 10:21, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot! :) --Lkl ★ 16:15, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

American premiere[edit]

I'm not sure that it's a good idea to add the US premiere cast nine days before the actual US premiere. Some singers may be taken ill or called away for personal reasons or etc. It's better to add the cast after the premiere has taken place (but I'm not planning to revert!). --GuillaumeTell 00:34, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
