Labyrinth of burning tealights
Labyrinth of burning tealights

5x expanded by Urmelbeauftragter (talk). Self-nominated at 21:49, 28 November 2016 (UTC).

  • Comment I'd drop "Cretan-style" since it isn't, meaningfully. Better caption: "labyrinth of 2500 tealights". Johnbod (talk) 13:52, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
  • I like the original hook, but the statement in the article is unsourced. Gatoclass (talk) 05:49, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
  • Gerda Arendt, any chance you could respond to this? I would like to try and get this one ready for Christmas Even if possible, and it's less than 24 hours away. Gatoclass (talk) 15:26, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
I was out, sorry. I started the article to fill a red link but haven't studied the translation of more details from German. It would have been better last week, I agree. Let me look. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:12, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
I looked and changed a bit of formatting. I think the article would profit from copy-editing by a native speaker, also some pruning. Do we need the logo of the diocese? The way to get there? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:24, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
The event in 2016 is mentioned in the pdf Program December 2016 to July 2017, but not the number of lights. I'm sorry, I'm too busy for more digging right now, and there's no rush. Meditation is always good, and 3rd Saturday was 10 December this year. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:56, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
The hook mentions advent, and that would obviously be best to run before Christmas rather than after. Gatoclass (talk) 08:19, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
ALT1 doesn't mention Advent, it's a good image, and prep is done for all these days. 1 January would be a good day for spirituality and light, or 20 January. I am behind on my private preparation, and have nice company, sorry. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:23, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
I have no written source source for the number of lights only verbal statements of the initiators of the labyrinth. This year they mentioned it would be 2400 lights. The number must be between 2400 and 2500 based on the number of tealights which were be used.--Urmelbeauftragter 10:33, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
ALT2: * ... that in the Centre for Christian Meditation and Spirituality of the Diocese of Limburg it is possible to walk through a labyrinth of burning tealights (pictured)? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:45, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
It still isn't sourced. Gatoclass (talk) 12:05, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
What do you mean with it? On the registration page the number of 2500 lights is mentioned.--Urmelbeauftragter 15:21, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
Okay, thanks Urmelbeauftragter, but the article still contains three uncited paragraphs, they will need to be cited before the article can be promoted. Gatoclass (talk) 15:52, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
Which paragraphs do you mean?--Urmelbeauftragter 16:11, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
I've added an additional source for the advent labyrinth.--Urmelbeauftragter 10:40, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
  • (Not a full review) The article is presently ineligible because some non-lead paragraphs do not have inline citations, per D2 of the DYK Supplementary guidelines. The Transport connections section has no citations, in the Program section, the second paragraph has no citation, and in the History section, the short, one-sentence paragraph has no citation. North America1000 10:07, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
I have added inline citations for these points except of one. I haven't found a source for that the centre was the first one of it's kind in Germany (History section). I've started a request at the centre for more information. I heared about it in the past but I haven't found a written source until now.--Urmelbeauftragter 21:40, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
I've made some research on the point that the Centre was the first institution of its kind in Germany. I've found no source that this was right but I've found also no source that it was wrong. I've made a new article with my results which is only available in German until now on Meditationskirche. It was as far as I could found the first christian centre of meditation in Germany. There is only one further in a Protestant church in Hamburg but this was founded in 2009. But the centre in Frankfurt was founded in 2007.--Urmelbeauftragter 16:26, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
Urmelbeauftragter, since you aren't able to find a source to support the claim that it is the first institution of its kind in Germany, I have removed the sentence involved. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:41, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
I haven't found anything about that point. I only haven't found nothing about an institution of that kind which was founded earlier.--Urmelbeauftragter 8:38, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Full review needed now that sourcing issues have been addressed. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:41, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
For QPQ you entered Helmut Schlegel, but that was reviewed by Arius1998. Other than that, looks okay (for ALT2). New enough when nominated (expanded 11/27, nominated 11/28); long enough; within policy; hook (ALT2) format okay; hook is interesting and neutral; image is free, used in the article, pretty and eye-catching. --MopTop (talk) 03:30, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
Comment: the user has only one DYK credit, and had non when nominated, - no qpq required, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:10, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
Okay then. I don't know why they didn't just say that, instead of linking to a nomination that someone else reviewed, but whatever. --MopTop (talk) 15:21, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
