Overall: This is an interesting article - thank you for this - but there is a little work to do. (1) The first paragraph of the Life section needs a citation at the end. (2) The hook needs to be repeated clearly in the article's main text, alongside its citation. So please add "1500" near (or instead of) the phrase, "large size"? (3) Fischer-Chöre is an entity, not a person, so in the hook you need "which", not "who". (4) The QPQ is pending. These matters should be easily resolved, and I look forward to this nomination being resolved. Storye book (talk) 15:48, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for the review! Please not that I didn't write the article, Jmanlucas did, and I just noticed yesterday, and had to expand and nominate in a bit of a rush to not miss the deadline. I found a great ref which I will eventually use. I'll ping you, but have plans for the next days. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:36, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for the prompr reply Gerda - I hope you had a great Christmas. No hurry; enjoy the New Year celebrations. Storye book (talk) 16:48, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- We celebrate Christmas to 6 January, more or less. If you like, there two "cards" on my talk, - look for "my card". How are you? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:52, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Great cards on your talk - thanks for the prompt. Christmas is very quiet indeed, here. My area is in tier 2, which is a mild lockdown, but the government may ramp it up to tier 5, which they haven't quite invented yet. It is all amusing (British humour laughs at everything anomalous) and unpredictable, so most of us just do our best to err on the side of carefulness. At least British Wikipedians have extra time to contribute. Storye book (talk) 17:03, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- One step taken, I reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Virol. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:14, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you, Gerda, we're getting there! Just three more issues to go. I hope you're OK where you are. Here in Northern England we are under lockdown, and have had snow. Storye book (talk) 16:51, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- I'm fine, we also had snow, even enough to ski (yesterday) which is rare. I confess that I forgot all about this nom until I saw an interesting one to review, and applied it to oldest one waiting ;) - In the process of nominating one for yesterday ... --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:23, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- Good to go with ALT1. Thank you Gerda for sorting this out. I've adjusted the above review accordingly. I have struck the bit about "which" and "who" on the grounds that although "which" is correct in standard English, the common usage is "who". Now at last Herr Fischer can have his day!
