Joseph Hermann Mohr[edit]
Joseph Mohr as a young priest
- ... that the Jesuit Joseph Mohr (pictured) could not write his popular hymn, which he modeled after military marches, in Germany? Source: several
- Reviewed: Chen-Lu Tsou
- Comment: He rarely used the middle name, but I named the article with it, to avoid dab to Joseph Mohr, the more famous hymnwriter.

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced. As sources are in German, unable to check for close paraphrasing. The hook is interesting, but there is no inline cite for him modeling the hymn after Prussian military marches. I moved the unsourced sentence under "Awards" to the paragraph about his death because it, too, isn't cited. Image is in article and is freely licensed. QPQ done.

- I removed Prussian, because of our DYK watch. The marches he knew were Prussian, but Germany became united in 1872. Sourced marches. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:18, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
