Christmas operas edit
... that the first Christmas operas were composed in the early 17th century?
- ALT1:... that at least nine Christmas operas have been based on Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol?
Created by Voceditenore (talk). Nominated by 4meter4 (talk) at 15:34, 22 December 2015 (UTC).
New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The first hook does not have a cite in the lead; the cite is next to the name of an opera in the 17th century. ALT1 is a better hook. ALT1 offline ref AGF and cited inline. I'll donate a QPQ to expedite this: Template:Did you know nominations/War of the Maidens. ALT1 good to go for Christmas Day.
