  • This article is new enough and long enough. I have rearranged the citations which were a bit confusing, and I do not think they support the hook facts, because the opera appears to have premiered in Munich. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:39, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: You might have been misled by my edit summary which I had prepared before I realised there was a problem with the hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:36, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
You are right, it appears that the opera premiered in Munich. However, the first performance was on 27 July, and the so-called premiere in Munich on 27 September. What should we do? It's a matter of pride to have the premiere. So, although the original hook is correct (at least if "premiere" is equal to "first performance"), instead:
ALT1: ... that Liebe und Eifersucht (Love and Jealousy), an 1807 opera with libretto and music by E. T. A. Hoffmann (pictured), was premiered in 2008?
ALT2: ... that Liebe und Eifersucht (Love and Jealousy), an 1807 opera with libretto and music by E. T. A. Hoffmann (pictured), was premiered in 2008 in collaboration of the Ludwigsburger Schlossfestspiele and the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz in Munich? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:54, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Approving ALT1, which I prefer, and ALT2. Request is for July 27th, the date of the first performance. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:08, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
