Suggestion
Off-topic. Not helpful for the reader. Prose uses non-existent words and phrases. Does not match sources and misses point of article. Mathsci (talk) 02:00, 7 January 2017 (UTC) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

"the co-ruling Dukes" "In 1708 Bach applied before the Duke", "his brother had even more musical talents", "taught the prince keyboard", "on the expense of both the Wilhelmsburg and Rotes Schloss courts"... This is all unreadable and ungrammatical. Nor is what you're trying to write accurate or relevant. You seem not to have understood what the first section is about. Nothing you have suggested seems at all helpful for the reader, quite the contrary. I am making all sorts of of changes and do not need feel I need help at this early stage. Why not try improving L'estro Armonico? You're surely capable of explaining in two or three sentences what Anne Dawson's book is. It's in the sources, so all you have to do is paraphrase them in a clear way. Mathsci (talk) 02:00, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Re. "I am making all sorts of of changes and do not need feel I need help at this early stage" – wouldn't be too snubbish about help offered, e.g. might help you to avoid WP:OR like "The earliest extant score..." --Francis Schonken (talk) 08:18, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Are you helping to avoid WP:OR like "The earliest extant score..."? The caption has two references. The second one states in a section marked 'sources', "The chronological positioning of the concerto transcriptions within the central Weimar period is substantiated by two sources. The first is the sole extant autograph from this work group, that of BWV 596." Clear enough. Yet here you are claiming "original research". That is fairly typical of your commentary. It is disruptive trolling. Mathsci (talk) 10:12, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- "first" of "two sources" does not necessarily mean "earliest". So WP:OR. --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:42, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
