• New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. Nominator has less than 5 DYKs, although the QPQ review is appreciated. First hook is good; I tweaked the formatting and link. Offline hook ref AGF and cited inline. The only outstanding issue is the lack of citations for the lyrics and other pertinent facts, which I have tagged. Yoninah (talk) 00:16, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

• Citations added, the Library of Congress page for the song has images of the 1794 sheet music, with the lyrics included, and the other info. — Kaz (talk) 19:24, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
