Worthwhile article?

edit

Is this kind of article viable as an encyclopedia entry? Wouldn't it be better to simply incorporate the information into the main Wagner page or subpage? Listing this as a Wagner opera may lead some people to think it's a real work. We've been down this road before with Verdi's Re Lear etc. --Kleinzach 23:14, 6 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

The work is of some historical significance as Wagner's first, albeit failed, attempt to write an opera. I agree it should not be listed on the infobox as a Wagner opera, any more than should his other outline projects, e.g. "Jesus of Nazareth", that came to nothing. I intend to add more information to this stub (it should not be rated "Start"), and believe it is a viable short article. Brianboulton (talk) 08:22, 10 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
I can't help thinking that this really belongs in your impressive new List of dramatic works by Richard Wagner. --Kleinzach 09:06, 10 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Infobox?

I suggest an infobox, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:02, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

done --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:13, 4 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Apologies Gerda, only just seen this. I don't think it very appropriate. Have removed it pending further discussion. I suggest that if you are going to add these boxes as you have at other Wagner operas, you raise the issue first at WP:Opera and WP:Wagner: I am flagging the matter there.--Smerus (talk) 10:10, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
