Plagiarism concern?[edit]

The last sentence as was, "have become notable additions to the ... repertoire", is word for word from one of his obituaries - see PanArmenian.net. This rings the wrong bells. Schissel | Sound the Note! 14:49, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lede/Lead of the article[edit]

In the lede of the article, after the first sentence it says "Edvard Mirzoyan was born in Gori, Georgia. He called himself an atheist,^[1] but added, "There is only one planet on which people live and are being born. And while it is, it's a miracle. A miracle, every leaf and every bug.... And it all depends on how you are able to enjoy this miracle. Some do not even think that they were born into a miracle."^[2]"

I believe his birthplace and his religious beliefs should be stated in the biography rather than the lede because it is unlikely that atheism is a key portion of Mirzoyan's life (if it is important, then it needs to be expanded a lot more in the article stating more of his beliefs).

And for the quote, while it is a nice quote, quotes aren't usually in the lede unless it is important to the character of the article, describing him/her in a factual manner rather than an opinionated quote or a personal quote such as this one, a good place for this quote will be in Wikiquote, so if it isn't there already then I suggest removing the quote from the article and moving it to the Wikiquote page for Edvard Mirzoyan (if such page doesn't exist, then one could simply create it).

Basically, remove the sentence stated above in quotations and move them elsewhere, and only keep "Edvard Mik'aeli Mirzoyan (Armenian: Էդվարդ Միքայելի Միրզոյան; May 12, 1921 – October 5, 2012)^[3] was an Armenian composer.^[4]" in the lede.

I want to know what other editors think of this idea. Thanks - RandomEditorAAA (talk) 23:04, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
