My prose counter gives 241 words of prose (not counting the quoted text), that's 9 words too short of not being a stub. Can you expand this? As a DYK writer myself, I already see this is using the text doubling strategy anyway (as in, the article is so short half of it is the lead and it is just duplicating the body...); so really, we are looking at maybe 150 words of non-duplicated prose. Also, please add more categories (for a date, country, etc.). Everything else is ok. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 00:26, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
Piotrus, you are right of course, and as a DYK writer you probably know about the importance of nominating in time even if the article is not ready ;) - Before turning to this one of many neglected, I want to expand Jerzy Matuszkiewicz, feeling that the memory of someone who just died is more time-critical than an old cantata which wasn't even printed. Perhaps you can help with the musician? Get over more from pl? And tomorrow Kazimierz Kowalski, to be translated from pl? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:49, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Piotrus, I managed to expand the jazz musician, and now the cantata. Please check. I have the complete text, on top of the IMSLP score which is harder to read. More detail would be possible. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:47, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Gerda Arendt,

I see this now at 260 words of prose. We can technically pass it, but is there really nothing else we can write here? Nobody has reviewed it, analyzed it? It hasn't inspired any remakes, reinterpretations, and like? I have to say, notability is borderline too (not that I intend to AfD this). But I do feel a bit uneasy about having such borderline topics (length, notability) on the front page, which IMHO should be showing our best work. But I may be nitpicking. Anyway, technically, this meets DYK requirements, so it's a pass, although I do wonder if it would survive an AfD... --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:03, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
