Checking against the GA criteria[edit]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
"his third year as Thomaskantor" - should this be italicised, per some other articles?

"Bach began the libretto for the feast" - which feast?

"the first of these hymns was sung regularly after the sermon on Reformation Day in Leipzig" - needs a link

"As Hofmann points out" - sounds a bit informal. Perhaps this could be As Hofmann asserted
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Once again this article has been exceptionally good. I couldn't find anything worthy of putting this on hold, well done! JAGUAR 22:55, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pre-GAN polish[edit]

"...and including the first stanza from Martin Rinckart's hymn "Nun danket alle Gott" and as the closing chorale the final stanza of Ludwig Helmbold's hymn "Nun laßt uns Gott dem Herren" -- doesn't quite make sense. I don't want to adjust it as I don't know what to adjust it to. Any ideas Gerda? Cassianto ^Talk 20:47, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
