Formality?[change source]

Perhaps this could be a bit more formal in places please. 'Handel had a funny life' - hardly a respectful or appropriate comment. If you click on View history, you can go back to the original. The picture of Handel's birthplace works on the earlier page whereas it does not on the more recent page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.28.115.88 (talk • contribs)

Agreed! The language is somewhat unsophisticated and lacks a ring of authenticity, as a consequence the sentence, "It was here that Handel composed some of his most famous music such as Messiahs, Zadok the Priests, and Fireworks Music." projects an ignorance of the subject, given the titles to the works are inaccurate. Perhaps this sentence could be amended to read 'It was here that Handel composed some of his more famous works, such as the "Messiah", "Zadok The Priest" and "Music For The Royal Fireworks" '. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.154.42.229 (talk • contribs)
