A fact from Shepherd's Pipe Carol appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 December 2018 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that the "Shepherd's Pipe Carol" was reportedly sung by choirs in the Baltic states as a sign of resistance to Soviet control?
John Rutter was born in 1945, so he can't have been 18 in 1966. The claim that he was 18 when he wrote it came from the New York Times article cited; the claim that he wrote it in 1966 comes from a Guardian piece written by John Rutter himself. On this basis I assume that the New York Times article is in error and I have removed the reference to his age.GDBarry (talk) 10:10, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
