  • Article is long enough, was created recently and is within policy. The hook is interesting and is cited with several foreign (German) sources, but I was able to verify it since I speak the language. QPQ was done, but the hook's length is at 227 characters (not including ... or (pictured)), exceeding the requisite 200 characters. FrB.TG (talk) 15:45, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
    Thank you for the review! I don't arrive at an excessive length but we can shorten:
    ... that "Kommt her, ihr Kreaturen all", published in 1687 (pictured) and translated as "Come all ye creatures of the Lord", is still a common hymn during Corpus Christi processions? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:57, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
    Still at 205 characters. How about something like:
    I don't know how you count. My DYK check has 172 for the shortened version. With pictured after the hymn, it would read as if that version was still used which is nonsense of course. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:26, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
My guess is you didn't count the Wiki-markup symbols, but WP:DYKHOOK only excludes "the ..., the space immediately following the ..., or any (pictured)" and nothing else. So using this tool, I arrived at 210 characters. I counted the following: that "'''[[Kommt her, ihr Kreaturen all]]'''", published in 1687 and translated as "Come all ye creatures of the Lord", is still a common hymn during [[Feast of Corpus Christi|Corpus Christi]] processions?

Do you realise that character count is a feature of every nomination? See top right, toolbox. Please use it, and indeed without mark-up and piped links, just the prose as shown. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:53, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
My bad, WP:DYKHOOK recommends another tool for counting, and the guideline does not talk about excluding Wiki-markups or piped links. The contradiction confused me. I haven‘t nominated/reviewed a DYK in five years so apologies for the mix-up.
The original hook‘s length as per this should be good to go. FrB.TG (talk) 17:05, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: FYI, Corpus Christi, Texas is a popular tourist destination in the United States. It's also the site of multiple historic hurricane land falls. For anyone who promotes your hook, it might be a good idea to link Feast of Corpus Christi as the full name so as not to confuse. Your choice, however. — Maile (talk) 17:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
Do you think there could be any misundertanding? What would a German hymn have to do with a place in Texas? I'd understand if there was no link. But do as you wish. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:49, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
Two ALTS were proposed on the DYK talk page. I'm adding them here:

Hopefully this is will make it easier for preppers to see what the options are. Z1720 (talk) 15:47, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: The image used for this hook is missing a United States public domain tag, a list of which can be found on Commons by clicking here. Can you add the appropriate tag to the image's file page? Thanks, Z1720 (talk) 15:56, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
Sorry, I have no idea about these things. GRuban, perhaps. I am no friend of ALT1, because it supplies no hint at the unusual "creatures". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:44, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
For the image, my guess is it needs the PD-1996 banner. Z1720 (talk) 18:20, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: Can you resolve the licencing concerns so that this hook can be promoted? Thanks, Z1720 (talk) 16:30, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
Go ahead without image, - I'm coming from a funeral and am behind with more important things. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:54, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
I am sorry to hear about your loss. I added the US PD-1996 banner and put Germany as the country where this was originally published. @FrB.TG:, as the original reviewer, can you determine that the image licencing is correct and readd the green tick if there are no problems? Z1720 (talk) 21:20, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for taking care of the image licensing. I admit I'm not very good at it. Readding the tick. FrB.TG (talk) 15:51, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
