 * Symbol question.svg nice article on good sources. The hook is fine and sourced, but I would prefer to see a picture and to have the name mentioned. Perhaps something about the Renaissance pulpit? That would be more unusual than the many church pictures we get, also that it came from Denmark ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:18, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Nice pic, now please find a hook for it. The church mentioned in the original doesn't exist any more and can't be pictured. (I could propose one for you, but then we need a different reviewer.) ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:57, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure why you're withholding the DYKtick here, Gerda. The picture is a minor detail which shouldn't block this nomination's ascent to DYK. Can you please comment?  —♦♦ AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  09:05, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
 * "Withholding?" I was hoping (!) for a hook that mentions the pictured pulpit, while the present one refers to a legendary church long gone, long before the present building. I was told again and again, that I can't approve my own hooks. If you are willing to approve, I can suggest:
 * ALT1: ...that the church St. Severin in Keitum on the island of Sylt, first mentioned in 1240, is furnished with an early Renaissance pulpit (pictured) from Denmark? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:32, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Well, isn't this your lucky day? I am proficient in reading German and am happy to be approving the hook and its source. Done. ALT1 it is.  —♦♦  AMBER  (ЯʘCK)  09:47, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
