 * Symbol question.svg Interesting life of one or two people, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. Hook is fine. Suggestions for article: explain or link hagiography in the lead, mention the possibility of two Adsos there. - Sadly, the expansion is great, but not quite long enough (had 1546 chars when you started). Can that be helped? (Hint: write more lead.) - Thought of you when writing on another Kirchenlied song, - how could "frohgemut" be translated to indicate that it countains "Mut"=courage, which was needed at the time? Additions welcome, - much more in German, but some pretty "German". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:42, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Gerda Arendt, long enough now? Thanks, Drmies (talk) 00:44, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Not for the rules. 1546 - 6998. But for me, because I think it's a silly rule. You added more than 4,5k valuable content, thank you!

 * Symbol question.svg Hi, I came by to promote this. Should there be attribution to The Catholic Encyclopedia, which you are quoting verbatim? Yoninah (talk) 23:59, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Yoninah, I'm not expert on that. That content was already there; I adjusted the reference, I believe. But those instances are cited properly, and I just tweaked a few words and phrases since that language is really archaic. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 20:59, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I provided the attribution. Restoring tick (source is online) per Gerda's review. Yoninah (talk) 20:45, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
