How to write about a hymn

Amazing Grace is a Featured Article, ie is recognised as one of Wikipedia's finest. It does not list every hymnbook including the hymn. It discusses multiple aspects of the hymn and its composition. It sets a fine example. Pam D 08:44, 13 March 2018 (UTC) reply

  • ... that " At the Name of Jesus" has been described as "the only completely objective theological hymn to come from the hand of a 19th-century woman writer"?
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Felipe Lara
  • Comment: Open to hook alternatives - there could be something in her 20-year break from writing poetry, but I'm not sure how to phrase it in reference to this hymn. But if ALT0 is ok, that's fine with me!

  • Expansion started from this point. Excluding the non-prose text of the hymn, this was just 1329 bytes, so 5x expansion has been achieved comfortably.
  • Expansion started on 27 May; article nominated on 1 June, so in time.
  • Graded as Start-Class.
  • No issues with copyvio or close paraphrasing, nor with neutrality/POV; I have spot-checked online references and those accessible via the Internet Archive.
  • Everything in the article is sourced. Quality of sourcing is impeccable.
  • The hook is also sourced and is suitably interesting.
  • QPQ review has been done.
Nice little article on a hymn I am very familiar with. Fully verified. Hassocks 5489 (Floreat Hova!) 10:12, 27 June 2024 (UTC) reply
