Article is long enough and new enough. The hook is appropriate and sourced. I did not find any close paraphrasing or copyvios. Two issues remain. One is that the QPQ is still needed. Also, the last paragraph, which is a single sentence, does not have a source.Rlendog (talk) 23:42, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you, will look after the holidays. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:21, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- I reviewed now Template:Did you know nominations/Francis X. Talbot, and added 2 refs. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:47, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- The source for the last sentence/paragraph doesn't seem to match the content. The sentence says "Protschka continues to give recitals and concerts, has been a jury member of international competitions, and runs a studio for vocal interpretation" but the source only shows that he was giving a master class (which was addressed in the previous sentence/paragraph, not this one).

- I went to bed last night after digging up sources for an article sent to draft and an article proposed for deletion. I wake up to a ping asking to dig up sourcs for completely uncontroversial things a singer would normally do when retired but still able. I can do that next year, being behind with end-of-year things and no imminent danger (as in the other two cases). You can wait, or comment out the bits you find unsourced, or realize that the rulez don't even prescribe every tiny bit to be sourced, or what comes to your mind. - Happy new year! (Look there again when it comes, decoration in prep, that's more fun to work on.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:27, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think the needed fixes are difficult. It may just be deleting the last sentence if there is no reliable source for it, or even combining it with the prior paragraph. But you should decide the best approach. Rlendog (talk) 17:37, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
- Why should I decide?. I am not the author, just the source-digger, and I reached my limit here. I suggested that you comment out that sentence. no? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:36, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
