- Comment: Could run as a hook on Christmas, or Christmas Eve, or neither. I find the picture pretty fantastic. I was working on Draft:Jews and Christmas and ended up here – isn't it funny how that happens?

- article is new enough, long enough, sourced, neutral, and plagiarism-free. I'll approve ALT1 as the most interesting, it's cited and neutral. A QPQ has been done, so good to—approved for Christmas or christmas eve. Nice work, ezlev, fascinating article! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 05:33, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks ever so, theleekycauldron! Any chance I could get a review of the image too? ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 05:43, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- public domain and clear at 100px, so approved; but i'd say that it's not the best image for the christmas slot we've got going, unfortunately. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 05:49, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- In these days of Interfaith dialogue among the Abrahamic religions, I think it might be a useful nod to all those involved in Interfaith. UK Inter Faith Week was in November. Consider. --Whiteguru (talk) 21:12, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

- I don't have any experience with special occasion hooks – should this be moved into the SOHA? ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 18:42, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
- As a note, I think this would do great as an image hook, if one of the Christmas slots is free. Kingsif (talk) 22:07, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Lost film?
[edit]The article says, "Modern analysis of The Jew's Christmas is based on contemporary writings about it, as well as Olden's novelization." Presumably that's because the film is lost, but the article never explicitly says that. Can we verify that the film is indeed considered lost? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:19, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- Metropolitan90, I think you’re correct that this is a lost film, but as far as I can tell none of the currently cited sources say so explicitly. I’ll look for sourcing for that eventually, or you’re of course welcome to do so! ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 03:30, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
