I didn't notice this error before; perhaps it wasn't there... The paragraph in question currently reads:

The above is not an exhaustive list of voices used in choral writing. Names for finer distinctions and wider extremes exist, such as baritone, which is between tenor and bass; mezzo soprano, which is between alto and soprano; basso profundo, meaning below bass and which is above soprano. However, these terms have either fallen out of use, or are now only applied to solo parts.

-this is missing the name for the voice above soprano, mean. It should be:
