[edit] Overclassification?

A hidden comment was left in the text asking whether putting Weisberg into Category:American classical bassoonists was overclassification. To explain, I put Weisberg into this category in the light of the guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicians/Categorization:

[edit] Birthdate?

Was Arthur Weisberg born in 1931, or 1938? On this page, it says 1938, but on another Wikipedia page it says 1931. He is also categorized internally according to the 1931 birthdate. Can anyone verify this, and correct the inconsistency? KirstinAKbsn 12:52, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, he's probably one of the few titularies of an article wehere a contact is available. His e-mail is aweis98@aol.com, so if anybody would like to contact him... :)

At least two documents from the International Double Reed Society website indicate a 1931 birthdate - [1], [2].Bpimentel (talk) 13:05, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
