 * ... that for his application for the post of Thomaskantor, Bach added as a final movement to Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn, BWV 23, an elaborate setting of the German Agnus Dei from the lost Weimarer Passion?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article was recently promoted to GA status. Article is long enough, follows all wikipedia policies, is free of copyright violations, and is well referenced. The hook is verified to a cited reference. QPQ is done. This article can be promoted.4meter4 (talk) 17:40, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Hook is over 200 characters. I would normally trim it myself in the prep, but this topic is unfamiliar to me; I would prefer if Gerda made the cut.  Jolly  Ω   Janner  09:18, 28 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Too long by how many chars? Too long because the article title is long? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:01, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, I came by to promote this, but would like to know if the hook should say the Agnus Dei is "likely" from the lost Weimarer Passion, as in the source? Regarding the hook length, it is currently 204 char. Perhaps you'd like to pipe the link, or write it in English? You True God and Son of David is only 30 char; the German title, without the BMV 23, is 38 char. Yoninah (talk) 23:56, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
 * If you look at the article Weimarer Passion: there seems no doubt it was part of it, - also "lost" I think includes a degree of uncertainty. Perhaps we drop the extra complication of this movement probably being added later:
 * ALT1: ... that Bach applied for the Thomaskantor post with Du wahrer Gott und Davids Sohn, BWV 23, ending in an elaborate setting of the German Agnus Dei from a lost Passion? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:45, 29 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg for ALT1, which is now under 200 characters. It introduced no new facts from the original hook.  Jolly  Ω   Janner  08:46, 29 February 2016 (UTC)
