  • This article is new enough and long enough (now that I have added a few more words). The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral, I detected no policy issues and a QPQ has been done. I don't like the hook, the "soon after" bit is vague and the New York date is uncited and was wrong in the article, and the figure 180 is also uncited. I would like to suggest:
  • ALT1 ... that Das goldene Kreuz (The Golden Cross), the second opera by Ignaz Brüll (pictured), premiered in Berlin to considerable acclaim but was later banned by the Nazi regime? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:20, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
I miss the international success, and "later" is even more vague than "soon after", talking decades, not a few years. Some wordsmith please for: this comic opera was an immediate international success in the 19th century, but a ban by the Nazis because the composer was Jewish killed it forever. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:36, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ... that Das goldene Kreuz (The Golden Cross), the second opera by Ignaz Brüll (pictured), was an immediate international success but was later banned by the Nazi regime? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:36, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
Fine with me, thank you! Or should we need to be specific and say that it was a national success and played within the next (13) years in London and NY with less success? - I added the ref for the 180, as you will have seen. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:34, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
Approving ALT2. User:Векочел has also reviewed the nomination but it is unclear which hook Векочел has approved. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:09, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
