The article is new, long enough (though admittedly not obviously so at first sight) and entirely within policy: there are no neutrality issues and everything is neatly referenced. Using numerous German-language sources in each paragraph makes close paraphrasing very unlikely. There is a blunder in the hook but that can be easily fixed. I am more bothered by the "by a woman" part because I do not see a reason to highlight the author's gender. Naming her would be better, especially if it were a double hook.

- Thank for the review, and I confess that I wasn't only too much in a rush to nominate this, but also to create that woman's article in time. It will be done, in one or two days, and then her name put in place in the hook. Please be patient. I'd also like to expand the article a bit, by saying that the song gets attention these days for "preserve the planet" actions. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:44, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Oh, the modern usage might make an interesting hook too! Surtsicna (talk) 12:46, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- I wrote the article about the composer now, - at least a start. Looks as if it won't get long enough for its own DYK, so I'd be pleased to mention her here:
- ALT1: ... that "Freuet euch der schönen Erde", a 1827 hymn calling to enjoy the beautiful Earth, became successful with a melody composed by Frieda Fronmüller around 100 years later?

- Since the article doesn't mention Earth (perhaps it does in German, but not in the English prose), I'm promoting this alt:
- ALT1a: ... that "Freuet euch der schönen Erde", a 1827 hymn calling to enjoy the beauty of nature, became successful with a melody composed by Frieda Fronmüller 100 years later? Yoninah (talk) 11:16, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
