— The Opera of the Month collaboration focuses on improving existing articles. —
The operas of the month for May are five works by Henry Purcell:
- Dido and Æneas
- Dioclesian
- King Arthur
- The Fairy-Queen
- The Indian Queen (This lacks information on the actual semi-opera, instead just discussing the original play!)
We will also be concentrating on improving Henry Purcell.
Purcell's 350th birthday is on 10 September 2009. We would like to get at least one Featured article to run on the Wikipedia Front page that day. This month's collaboration is to prepare the ground and bring the above articles to an acceptable state for building on in the coming months. (See also the Opera Project talk page and Wikipedia:Featured article criteria.)
