Did you know ...

"In dich hab ich gehoffet, Herr", a paraphrase of Psalm 31,
as chorales in three vocal works, including in the St Matthew Passion?

Did you know ...

... that Ave Maria, an obscure piece for two men's choirs
by Franz Biebl published in 1964,
became a choral standard after Chanticleer
made it part of their holiday programs?

(1 January 2020 · listen to Chanticleer, 2015)

... that John Rutter wrote the text and music for
Angels' Carol, a choral piece for Christmas,
using the Latin "Gloria in excelsis Deo" as a refrain?

A barnstar for you! - thanks in 2019, visions in 2020

The Special Barnstar
Happy New Year, Gerda Arendt! You are receiving this barnstar because, according to this Wikipedia database query, you were the #3 most thanked Wikipedian of 2019, with 1418 entries in Special:Log/thanks during 2019. Congratulations, and, well, thank you for your contributions! Cheers to 2020. Mz7 (talk) 01:12, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Mz7, that's nice, just a statistical number, but nice, especially concluding 2019, a year I designated to be the year of thanks. I thank those who thanked me, - it always feels good to receive this little token of one's work being noticed and even liked. I'll transfer the barnstar to project WP:QAI for which I work. We had three topics in 2019 which are ongoing, and you can help (you all, I mean, member or not) to work on them:
What really counts for me are written thanks is prose such as those from Voceditenore and Coffee.
Let's make 2020 a year of vision, together! Article for today Psalm 103. Happy editing in 2020! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:18, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome! Another interesting statistical number: according to a different database query, you were also last year's most thankful Wikipedian, with 4246 uses of the thank tool in 2019. If you meant for 2019 to be your year of thanks, you certainly achieved it. Mz7 (talk) 01:43, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You read my mind that I was more interested in giving than receiving ;) - Of course it's also just a number, - I regard the clicks as a lazy expression of thanks, and count more what I do in thanking users in prose.

I hope that visions for 2020 will be as successful as the thanks in 2019:

... that missed friends return (... banned, blocked for no good reason, just given up ...)

... that edit-warring is replaced by discussion - I am on voluntary 1RR

... that people realise when they dominate a discussion too much - I try to stick to 2 comments

... that infoboxes added in good faith (now or in the past) are not regarded as vandalism

... that we'll live up to the legacy of Brian Boulton, in article creation (Percy Grainger and Lost operas by Claudio Monteverdi coming to mind), reviewing the work of others, willingness to seek compromise, and respectful attitude

... or in summary: that good faith and IAR are applied more generally, - just look at Ray's Rules and "go on with life, have a laugh, don't get too upset over this".

I may add to this list later - this is just a spontaneous wishlist. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:06, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

FAC mentoring

Hi Gerda,

As you may be familiar, I write and improve articles primarily about radio stations, and lately I've been teaming up with my friend Nathan Obral on several projects. One of those article improvements, KWKW, has grown quite beyond a sprucing up into a more than 5x expansion, and the article now stands at more than 37,000 prose characters citing more than 170 sources. We would like to proceed with nominating the article as an FA candidate but have no experience in the realm whatsoever, and because a significant portion of the article is about this radio station's time as KFAC—the preeminent classical music broadcaster in Los Angeles for 40 years—we thought you would make a good fit as a mentor. Articles of this length on U.S. radio stations are exceedingly rare—WINC (AM) is the only comparable FA, and there are several GAs as well.

We've completed the expansion and the page will also be nominated for DYK, but we're hoping that you would be willing to assist us in the FAC process. Raymie (tc) 06:28, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Raymie, thank you for thinking of me, and I am interested! You may want someone else, because my only FAC in 2019 was not successful. You may want someone else because I am occupied with several projects of my own, - see above, look for vision. You may want someone else because I'm on vacation and have very little time besides hiking and enjoying scenery, food and drink. If you are still not driven away, have patience, and we can tackle it together. Did you already write alternate text - as for someone blind - for images? - I want to improve the article of someone who recently died before even looking at yours ;) - seriously: I hate seeing those tagged for lack of sources, but was too tired when I discovered. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:33, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, have you considered a peer review? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:15, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Nun lässest du, o Herr

On 13 January 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nun lässest du, o Herr, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the hymn "Nun lässest du, o Herr", written by Georg Thurmair as a paraphrase of the Nunc dimittis, appeared with a 16th-century melody in the first Gotteslob, but with a modern one in the second?

May I have your assistance on this page? I know Americans are not your strong suit but I think you may still have some resources I may lack. I would particularly appreciate some help in finding sources for his compositions. I am trying to get the article a little better so I can include him at POTD for Black History Month. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 19:55, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. I know nothing but can perhaps turn up sources. First, though, there's a DYK nom due today, a GA review to which I haven't replied several days, to name only the most urgent things where I am behind after vacation of which I also want to upload images (see right above).

Jirangmoon, can you perhaps help me with the two Korean sources for Peter Beyerhaus, - translate title and publisher to English, use were facts are supported. My trust in translation progams is limited. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:48, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I will be happy to assist you. Please tell me specifically what you need?--Jirangmoon (talk) 09:46, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Jirangmoon I thought I did, just above. Was that unclear? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:09, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I missed the References at that time. I am a beginner. :) --Jirangmoon (talk) 11:59, 25 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Manually archived - thank you Gatoclass! - this stayed extra long. DYK that I try to write about compositions, to appear on composers' birthdays? 17k+ clicks for Mozart, more than ten times the clicks for his litanies, but that's the idea.

I notice that you have done some editing for this article. My question is, if you haven't already done so, could you have a look through the discography at the end, and tell me if you are happy with it the way it is. I presume it is in German and or French, and wonder if, in your opinion, it needs any clarification in English. Editrite! (talk) 09:08, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your excellent work in translating his discography. My only query is that I presume "ouverture" translates to overture in English. Editrite! (talk) 08:22, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Am Grabe, WAB 2

Dear Gerda,

I have in the meantime found a page with bars 1 to 4 of Am Grabe, WAB 2 with the modified text sung by the Wagner Society Male Choir of Japan in Am Grabe, WAB 2:

First strophe: Lasset uns den Leib begraben, überwindet Leid und Schmerz, ...
Second strophe: Nichts für immer ist entschwunden, der uns liebend war ge...
Third strophe: ...

As I previously wrote, I would be you very grateful if your could find time to complete this text. Best regards, --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 12:14, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I listened in, and understand only what you wrote. "Let us bury the body, conquer suffering and hurt, ... he disappeared not forever, who was lovingly ... to us ..." - As before, the quality of the text doesn't deserve attention and translation. I found the word "heimatwärts" (towards Heimat, - rather untranslatable anyway) in a poem, but it was a different poem. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:25, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I have in the meantime found the author of the modified text: Gottfried Grote, but further nothing else about the concerned text. --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 16:48, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Gottfried Grote? - You could summarize the ideas of the poem easily, just from the bits we have. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:52, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Psalms: English text

Hi, we really need some kind of English translation on Psalm 31 and all the Psalm pages. Please see Psalm 85 where I added the public-domain English translation from the JPS Bible from 1917. It's better than nothing, no? (I'm just not sure how to do the public-domain line under Sources.) Yoninah (talk) 15:10, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. How about raising the question on the project talk, and pinging those who had concerns? - I begam a little list of our efforts. Help wanted for adding at least the Latin below the English, such as: (la:) In te Domine speravi . I tried template plainlist, but it seemed not to work, - perhaps my mistake. I don't like the new-line-code for the purpose. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:19, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
