Precious
Two years!

Trying to learn English, this time Jubilate Deo (Britten). I come from German, where I'd try to first say that its about Psalm 100, and only then in which version, language and source. Is that different in English? I come from project opera where we try to avoid a link to a composer when the opera has an article, to avoid a sea-of-blue. Whoever doesn't know Mozart, can be sure to find a link in Idomeneo. Similarly, why an extra link to Windsor Castle? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:37, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: Sorry for the late reply. I think these points are more a matter of personal taste, but I've rephrased some of my previous edits in response to your remarks: "in English" has been moved to after "Psalm 100" (I've also removed the comment about the BCP here since this seems less relevant), and incorporated "Windsor Castle" into the "St George's Chapel" link. I'm not too sure which sea-of-blue link you're referring to; I don't see any in the article at present. I've also made a few grammatical alterations to the "Music" section – do let me know if you have any comments on my changes. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 15:21, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for explaining and making more changes! I seriously need that. - Sea-of-blue refers to the operatic example (sort of parallel), - I often change "Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Idomeneo" to "Mozart's Idomeneo". Not strictly sea-of-blue because of the apostrophe, admitted, but just too much blue, and not a matter of taste but a project's typical thing to do. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:35, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Noticed that you removed the dates from the short description in [1], just wanted to highlight the policy under which it was added. KyloRen3 (talk) 14:41, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

@KyloRen3: I seem to have forgotten about that policy – thanks for reminding me. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 14:46, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
