Created by Schminnte (talk). Self-nominated at 19:26, 3 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Scaramouche (Milhaud); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- Isn't the original hook saying more about Goodman than the piece? There's no way this image would be used for the Main page as too distant from the topic. - I will review if nobody beats me to it. Too many images, sandwiching the text, that's what I see at a glance ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:08, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: nice to hear from you again! If the second hook is suitable to be used, I prefer it anyway. If you could review the hook/have a look at the article I would be appreciative; I would like to keep at least some of the images but it probably requires some rearranging.Schminnte (talk • contribs) 10:05, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Understood. Please link suite in ALT1. I'll look now. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:00, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- How is the following: I first comment in the peer review, you make changes or not, and then I approve here? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:38, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: Im fine with that as long as you complete the peer review; I would be hesitant to just use the PR as a way to propose changes (which could be done here) if a full review would not be done. PS. I have wikilinked suite. Schminnte (talk• contribs) 12:03, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you, and yes, promised here. - Please find a way to add something like "to avoid Nazi censorship" to ALT1, mostly because Nazi gives you 1000 extra clicks, but also to explain ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:07, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: I would love some extra clicks. :) Please see the edited hooks below. PS. I will not be able to properly respond to the PR until later tonight. Best, Schminnte (talk • contribs) 13:08, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

I'll review this, looks well cited and written already! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 13:52, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
Rate | Attribute | Review Comment |
---|---|---|
1. Well-written: | ||
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. |
The prose is all good now. | |
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. |
No issues with mos standards. | |
2. Verifiable with no original research: | ||
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline. |
Now, the sources section needs to be alphabetized by last name (see Claude Debussy) | |
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose). | Most sources are from thesises, books, or journals; other citations are good. I'll note that the four AllMusic citations pull information from descriptions, so they're good too. | |
2c. it contains no original research. | The article is very well-cited; no original research is visible. | |
2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism. | Earwig shows a high copyvio score for this site, but it just caught a large blockquote from Milhaud's autobiography. No copyvios and plagiarism visible. | |
3. Broad in its coverage: | ||
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic. | Addresses everything an article about a composition should address, including sections about performances and recordings. | |
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style). | Stays focused throughout; the "Structure and music" section nicely summarizes some of the themes and techniques used throughout. | |
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each. | No bias visible | |
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute. | No recent edit wars | |
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio: | ||
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content. | All images are tagged with PD or LoC tags. | |
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions. | Images are relevant and properly captioned. | |
7. Overall assessment. | Waiting on the above things to be addressed Schminnte. Otherwise, it's a well developed article! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 18:54, 28 March 2023 (UTC) |
- I think I have addressed most of the points apart from 2a part 2, which will take a little longer. As I have not implemented some changes, I will now say why:
- Ref 6 (James) has been changed to cite paper. Unfortunately, that is the most information I can glean from the paper.
- Refs 51 and 55 are not cite webs. They are cite magazine and cite news respectively, so I don't think I should format them as cite web. I have improved the information though.
- Per Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources, AllMusic IS reliable, as long as you don't use the sidebar. I didn't use the sidebar, so I don't think I need to replace those citations.
- Almost forgot, the Radio Paris and Radio France orchestras are different entities, hence no wikilink
- The other points have been addressed, and I will fix the other sources later. Thanks for taking on the review @MyCatIsAChonk! Schminnte (talk • contribs) 20:10, 28 March 2023 (UTC) Edited 20:22, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

- @Schminnte: Thanks for clarifying those things for me (I was unaware of the AllMusic policy, so this is good knowledge for the future)! I've struck through what was completed; and in my experience, the reviewer strikes through, but you could leave a comment beneath each thing with " Done" or something like that if you wanted to. Best of luck with the refs! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 21:04, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice, I'll get cracking on those sources tomorrow. I drafted up a sources list, so it shouldn't take too much time... fingers crossed. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 21:14, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- @MyCatIsAChonk, I believe I have addressed the remaining issues. Please see the implemented changes. Thanks, Schminnte (talk • contribs) 15:54, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Schminnte: Thanks for your quick fixes! There's one last thing to be addressed- the sources list needs to be alphabetized. Once that's done, you're good to go for GA! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 23:02, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @MyCatIsAChonk, I have alphabetised the list and changed the formatting of the refs section (I think it looks better). Thanks for your help. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 10:44, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
