  • Gerda, this isn't very hooky. Yoninah (talk) 23:08, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
    I know. - Will hopefully arrive at something that until 2009, they didn't know to which Jakob the church was dedicated but it needs to go to the article first. I was already dead tired when I found that ref, sorry. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:41, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
    The original hook would perhaps work better with a pic such in the ref, where you see the drastic difference in style, but we don't have one on the commons. I could perhaps take one but not before October 4. Also, I much prefer the part pictured ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:44, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
There's a slight typo in the article: "cross from ." (with a space before the period). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:39, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
The missing word is Bruchstein in German, literally "broken stone". What would that be in English? The equivalent Rubble is not it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:57, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Quarried stone or rock. Yoninah (talk) 20:50, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Thank you, but quarried seems to include all sizes, while the German word would suggest something large, as on the image. What about dimension stone? Rock seems rather useless, - at least as I understand it, natural, not somehow "processed" for building. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:43, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that it took until 2009 to determine which of two apostles was the patron of St. Jacobi (pictured) in Werther from the 14th century? [2] pp. 116ff --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:22, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Great hook! New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced. As all sources are foreign-language, unable to check for close paraphrasing. Foreign-language ALT1 hook ref AGF and cited inline. Images are freely licensed. QPQ done. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:29, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
