Happy to take this on. Sainsf &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 09:15, 28 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Lead
 * Can we say something like (German for "I am content in my good fortune") in the lead, and also in similar cases in the main article?
 * compare BWV 65 --GA
 * Fine, if it is not the norm, no need. Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 07:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Would be good to add "composer" or perhaps "German composer" before Bach.
 * compare BWV 65 --GA

 *  and Bach led the first performance Remove "Bach", appears redundant.
 * yes --GA


 * Can "elegiac" be linked?
 * yes --GA


 * he wrote also this text appears a bit confusing. The line cold be rephrased as The text is similar to a cantata text Ich bin vergnügt mit meinem Stande (I am content with my position), published by Picander in 1728; however, it is not certain that he wrote both the texts.
 * that is in more detail below, I changed "this text" to "the cantata text"


 * History and words
 * You may wish to repeat the links from the lead in the main article.
 * I hesitate to link Leipzig, for example, because its well known, plus the present-day city has little in common with the one at Bach's time --GA
 * Not every link, whichever you think fine. :) Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 07:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)


 * BWV 144, in 1724 Comma after 1724.
 * done --GA


 * "gospel" may be linked.
 * would you link bible? --GA
 * Links really confuse me, even Bible is linked in some articles. Whichever you think fine. Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 07:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)


 * in the general way that the Christian should be content with his share of good fortune, without envy of others who may seem more fortunate I am not very sure what it means.
 * there are many ways of being content, Picander (or whoever the librettist was) deals with this way --GA


 * Bach led the first performance, probably on 9 February 1727 You say "probably" here, but uncertainty is not implied in the lead.
 * changed --GA


 * Would be good to mention the author's name in the image caption.
 * yes, but it's awfully long and presented right next to the image --GA


 * Selected recordings
 * Who is Aryeh Oron? You need to present people.
 * the author of Bach-Cantatas, but we can do without mentioning him --GA
 * Not adamant on this, but the mention won't do any harm. Unless it is a well-known personality in this field, the mention of a name like this is often confusing. Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 07:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)


 * on the Bach-Cantatas website Perhaps add "official" to this, as there could be many others of the same sort but unofficial?
 * compare BWV 65
 * Ignore if it is not an official website. Sainsf  &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 07:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Music
 * "recitative", linked in sections "2" and "4", is a duplink.
 * done --GA

Rest looks good. Would be glad to promote once the above issues are addressed. Cheers! Sainsf &lt;^&gt; Feel at home 09:20, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
