@Justlettersandnumbers: removed a number of links from the external links section, as follows:


Justletters writes in his edit summary "Wikipedia is not a link farm". How true! Yet I think that five links to analyses of important aspects of the piece and public domain performances is not excessive. How do others feel? If you agree, I would like to restore these links.

Hi, Ravpapa! Yesterday I removed (4) musictheoryprof.com from this and other articles because it appears to be a blog-type source that someone has been spamming here. My thoughts on the others are: (3) intimatemusic.blogspot.com surely falls into the same category as (4); (1, 2) if you want to listen to this music there are innumerable ways to listen to numberless different performances, so adding just two of them here seems a little pointless; and (5) if this is a reliable source, why not use it as a reference? Im not a fan of external link sections (which tend to act as spam magnets), but won't object if you feel those others should be added back.

Justlettersandnumbers, You may be right. Let's hear from some other editors before making a decision. Ravpapa (talk) 16:32, 19 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
