Pronunciation

I boldly moved the pronunciation of Bizet's name, with the explanation "Moved name pronunciation from notes into lead section, as per most other biographies." Nikkimaria reverted my edit, without explanation. Can someone please explain? I don't think this has anything to do wth the Infobox discussion above, so why should the format of the Bizet biography be different from so many others?

Placing the pronunciation in a footnote is permitted per MOS:PRONPLACEMENT, and I don't see a good reason to change that here. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:12, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. Thank you Nikkimaria. Tim riley talk 15:11, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
