 * Thank you for the review! - Sorry about the misspelling in the reviewed article, Template:Did you know nominations/Jean jacket. You don't see details on the image, but I believe you see that it's worth looking at in detail, - raising curiosity that is. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:11, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I hear your point on the image and I'm happy with that reasoning. The initial concern is raised above if any of the admins want to take another look at it. Other than that, the QPQ is done and I'm happy for this nom to proceed. Liam E. Bekker (talk) 10:24, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Why on earth are we getting all these Christmas-related hooks when last Christmas is well and truly over and next Christmas is 11 months away? Gatoclass (talk) 15:04, 22 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Because on Christmas Day, there was room for only two, but looking how many don't have articles, I wrote a few more, and - if I will still be able - will add more for the next Christmas. Also, define "truly over": the Christmas tree in our church traditionally stands to 2 February, Candlemas, which will celebrated with a cantata for TFA in 2018. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:13, 22 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Okay, hopefully we will be able to feature all of these by 2 February then because it starts to look very incongruous otherwise. I look forward to another batch next Christmas - we can't run them all on Christmas Day of course but running one or two a day pre- and post-Christmas would be fine I think.

 * Christmas, the gift that keeps on giving ...
 * Symbol question.svg Gerda, the article says the melody "shows similarities" with Puer natus est nobis, but the hook says it's based on it ...? Yoninah (talk)
 * For my simple English, that's more or less the same, sorry. The source goes into detail, and even a lay person might see that the first two intervals are the same. - A technical term is contrafactum, but I thought that's too technical, - also it's not really the same melody, - look at the source yourself. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:38, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
 * so can we substitute the hook wording for the first line under "Melody and settings"? Yoninah (talk) 20:49, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:49, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
