	Welcome 2021! In the end, ], and ] can stay. --] (]) 07:22, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

	My motto for 2021 is taken from ]: tell (announce) all in distress to take courage, as Isaiah wrote. Perhaps I should have just said "encourage!"

	Today is my grandparents' wedding anniversary. They loved gardening and made a small summer paradise for us kids, with fruits, vegetables, potatoes, abundant flowers, especially dahlias, and a swing, - so '''garden''' will be a topic in 2021, as ] was in 2020, today expanding ]. Ongoing: Bach, ], ], ], ], and (my) ].

	I love collaboration, and can't mention all 2,500 whom I acknowledged so far, so thank just three of them for ''constant'' help: ] (prolific article translations), ] (language, sources and articles on request) and ] (psalms and DYK). I make you (three) honorary members of ], the project about article quality that I inherited, - more detailed plans are laid out (work in progress) on the project talk. The only reward for members is a monthly calendar image I took, such as the year's picture, - if you (all) want that, sign up ;)

	I am proud that I could take recent images of music-making I enjoyed, and plan to do more of that. Off to Stonecrop Gardens. --] (]) 08:47, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

	I sent the following note to members and friends of ] = quality article improvement, so here to myself ;) - I tried to give a good start to 2021 by updating the ]. Please check and correct, - did you know that you belong to project's few members from the beginning who are still active? Yes, I know, I joined as No. 6 when it was founded in 2012, No. 1 is blocked, No. 2 is banned (therefore we call the project also the cabal of the outcast), No. 3 moved away and back under a higher number, Nos 4 and 5 edit but do little project work. Here I am to keep it going, in fond memory of the legacy the founders planted. Precious and Impact are the project's prizes, and I offer monthly thanks to those who are active, - you who read this could be one of them ;)

	Ongoing projects, besides writing and reviewing quality articles:
	* improve Psalms articles
	* improve Bach cantatas articles
	* expand and source translations
	* polish articles about people who recently died
	* offer infoboxes
	* perform gnomish tasks: spelling mistakes, unclosed new-line html (<nowiki><br></nowiki>, replace by <nowiki><br /></nowiki>), {{tl\|ill}} instead of direct links to foreign-language Wikipedias, {{tl\|lang}} for foreign-language text, ] by ], navboxes, especially for operas which so far had sidebars, {{tl\|sfn}} instead of {{tl\|harv}}.

	Not from my area but it's not far off from what I see on the trails. Our snow is about two to three feet deep in most places. It's pretty compacted on the trails but less so outside of them.

	== "The first movement is a chorale fantasia dominated by the trumpet." ==

	BWV 126. And I bet ''you'' wrote the sentence above! Isn't it, though, and how glorious. It's directly your responsibility that I am wallowing in this right now, Gerda, because your FAC made me listen to BWV 1 and on my Suzuki vol 34 that's coupled with 126 and 127. And here I am. I had just finished having my socks blown off by the horns in BWV 1 and then up popped 126 with the trumpet, er, ''dominating the chorale fantasia'' ... usw. Shocking that I didn't already know it, of course, but I have long since given up apologizing for my ignorance ... it would be a fulltime job otherwise. Gosh, it is an education reading your Talk page! Cheers ] (]) 15:34, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

	Thankyou for my precious birthday card. It must keep you monstrously busy sending them out. However as I was one of the early ones I hold it as a high honour and hope to have many happy returns!

"O wüsst' ich doch den Weg zurück..."; but, "Vorbei sind die Kinderspiele, Und alles rollt vorbei - Das Geld und die Welt und die Zeiten..." - though, while you keep us all connected, there is still a bit of "Glauben und Lieb' und Treu" - !

	Well, the ''attribution'' was fine, according to our rules for ]. I did not say that it was appropriate in light of the iBan.

We move from 2024 to 2025, with new calendar pictures and new music. The topic of Bach's chorale cantatas will keep me busy until 25 March, and then I want to focus on performances more generally, in history and in my experience. You can follow my daily stories, {{User Gerda Arendt/Top}}, often with an image and something to listen to: let's stay inspired and connected. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:57, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

#call for collaboration points at issues where I need help, such as reviews. Ongoing efforts regard locations that played a role in my life, recent deaths, music heard and sung, composers, gardens. Watch my user page for articles, done in collaboration. Compare 2024 for the amazing number of users who began and expanded articles. Thanks also to reviewers, and I do plan to review more and write less, and in writing, focus more on quality than the little daily article.

2025 calender pics and musical events begin here, and the 2025 diary of my own pictures of places, songs, food, flowers ... will come here, - just watch those lists if you are interested.

My talk goes like this: on top there's the "story" related to the day. Below are three or more boxes, often one for people remembered and others for musical experiences, performing or listening. In these boxes, topics related to the top story and topics featured on the Main page appear bold. Right here you see the image of the month with songs of the month, typically related to meetings with friends who gave them to me. I archive from time. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:25, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Liebster Gott, wenn werd ich sterben, BWV 8

The article Liebster Gott, wenn werd ich sterben, BWV 8 you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Liebster Gott, wenn werd ich sterben, BWV 8 and Talk:Liebster Gott, wenn werd ich sterben, BWV 8/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Aza24 -- Aza24 (talk) 00:24, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Aza24, thank you for the thorough review. I understand that in order to make Bach's chorale cantatas a good topic, this cantata - as part of it - has to be a good article, and I am willing to put work into it to make it so. However, right now I'm working simultaneously on several others with the same goal, and they require less work. I see me getting to serious changes for BWV 8 after the others, which will be in February. (The only one written later, BWV 1, is already a FA.) I'll make small changes now, perhaps today, but will then have to ask if the nom should remain open for longer or be closed and started over when I'm ready. Y'all: any help with this one and the others - making changes or reviewing - is welcome, see above, #calling for collaboration. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:06, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Draft:William Owen (composer)

Gerda, I was asked to help on this because it failed draft review. I added a few sources, but thought maybe you would like to take this on as it is about a hymn composer. Best.4meter4 (talk) 03:57, 29 December 2024 (UTC

I am interested, and thank you for thinking of me, but I have a few things I want to handle first, - just look above. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:57, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, still working on the last cantata for 2024, - will probably come over tomorrow with a photo or more tomorrow, to continue sharing. You can probably guess that the new calendar pics will be at User:Gerda Arendt/Images 2025--Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:23, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

New compilation of cello music from Venice

Good morning Gerda, have you already seen this article? Some composers such as Rita Stroh already have WP articles, but there might be more in this compilation from Venice. - Best wishes for a great New Year. Munfarid1 (talk) 08:19, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
