Fritz Stein edit

  • Reviewed: Sahwat al-Khudr
  • Comment: mention that it was payed as by Beethoven until 1957, or better not, to raise curiosity?

  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. The source, however, does not mention the year that he discovered the symphony, only that he published it in 1911. If you remove the date from the hook (and the article), it will make it snappier.

You are right:
ALT1: ... that Fritz Stein found in an archive orchestral parts of the Jena Symphony, which he published as possibly an early work by Beethoven?
What do we do about the article? The source says 1910, but our article on the symphony (all sources offline) has 1909? Same in the German WP from where I translated. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:06, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
  • @Gerda Arendt: do you have to say anything? You could just say that while he was in Jena, he discovered the symphony, which he published in 1911. Yoninah (talk) 21:09, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

  • My pleasure. ALT1 hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:23, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
