  • Comment: if you want a day connection, 24 May was the opening of the new church but I like the old one MUCH better ;) - The German Wikipedia has a detailed article for each, but I guess for our purposes, one should do. Please within May, Mary's month.--Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
  • New article is 2,014 characters long and nominated (exactly) 7 days after first expansion. AGF all the refs which are in German. Article is well-sourced. Hook is 191 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. AGF ref 2 (verifying the hook) which is in German. Only QPQ needs to be completed. —Bloom6132 (talk) 22:58, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
Thank you! I reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Taruni Sachdev. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:14, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
  • QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 20:08, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this. Could you write a hook that doesn't use the word pilgrimage three times? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 17:17, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
I can, but see the problem that the German names of the two churches begin with Wallfahrt which is pilgrimage, and thought that - not willing to give them both a separate article - at least I should stay close to their names, but well, I see the point. Anybody could have done that, no?
ALT1: ... that when the Werl pilgrimage to a statue of Mary grew, a large Romanesque Revival basilica was built adjacent to the former church in Baroque style (interior pictured)? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:23, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
Unless you have something better for Pentecost = 31 May, this might work. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:25, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
  • So you want this for May 31 instead? Yoninah (talk) 18:42, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Well, I bolded 24 but also said the connection is weak. Maybe do 24 anyway, because I hope to write an article really related to Pentecost, not just the month of May. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:22, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
  • OK. But the article needs inline cites on the Baroque style and Romanesque Revival style hook facts. Yoninah (talk) 19:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
I added a ref for the styles, - a bit tricky, because the ref for the surrounding facts didn't specify, - perhaps because it's so obvious. I also found an image of Mary, - now I should just add a bit more text to avoid white space ... --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:28, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Restoring tick for ALT1 per Bloom6132's review. Yoninah (talk) 18:31, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
