  • Article is new enough and long enough. Hook is within prescribed limits, however, it comes off a bit abstract with the claims "influenced" ... "at a decisive state". These terms could be a bit more specific. e.g.What is meant by "decisive state". i.e.Near completion? In the middle of a debate? Also, I would use the English phrase for Neue Bach-Ausgabe, i.e. New Bach Edition, as the rest of the hook is written in English and this is English Wikipedia. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 23:46, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for looking, - will think, need sleep first. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:57, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
Thought about it. I took the phrase from a source, but don't know what the source means exactly, so suggest we drop the idea.
ALT1: ... that the musicologist Georg von Dadelsen focused on the chronology of Bach's works, and influenced the Neue Bach-Ausgabe, the second complete edition of his works? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:37, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Fair enough. All criteria are met. AGF on the sources written in German. Good to go. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 21:39, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but the hook fact about the chronology of Bach's works does not have an inline cite, and two other paragraphs are not cited at all, per Rule D2. Also, can we avoid the repetition of the word "works" in the hook? Maybe say "Bach's vocal music" in the first instance? Yoninah (talk) 13:46, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
Seen, and found ref in English for fact that chronology was topic of his dissertation, but no time right now to implement, - opera first, and company afterwards. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:27, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
ALT2: ... that the musicologist Georg von Dadelsen wrote his dissertation in 1958 about the chronology of Bach's works, and influenced their second complete edition, the Neue Bach-Ausgabe? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:29, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Restoring tick for ALT2 per Gwillhickers' review. Yoninah (talk) 14:24, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
