QPQ: Done.

Overall: Hello Chorchapu, happy to review this nomination. The text was moved from draft space to article space on 23 October 2026. It has a readable prose size of 2765 characters. Every paragraph in the body of the article is sourced. It does not use promotional or overly negative language. WP:EARWIG shows no copyvios. The hooks are cited and interesting. The picture is free and used in the article, but it doesn't add much to the hooks. I would suggest running the nomination without the image (and accordingly remove the text (manuscript pictured) from the hooks). QPQ was done. One small nitpick: words progress slower due replace "slower" with "more slowly". Phlsph7 (talk) 17:40, 28 October 2026 (UTC)

@Phlsph7: Thank you for the review. I've just made the change. That's fine to not use the image, it is somewhat hard to read at this scale. Chorchapu (talk | edits) 17:42, 28 October 2026 (UTC)

That was fast. Looks good. Another small detail: in ALT0, I would use "best-known compositions" (or something similar) instead of "best-known works", since, without the image, readers may not be aware what it is. Removing the "(manuscript pictured)", that would leave us with:

ALT0a: ... that Amarilli, mia bella is one of Giulio Caccini's best-known compositions?
ALT1a: ... that Amarilli, mia bella is often sung by vocal beginners?

Yes, those look good. Which one do you prefer? Chorchapu (talk | edits) 17:58, 28 October 2026 (UTC)

That's a go then for ALT0a or ALT1a. I'm not sure which one is better, I think both work. I'll leave it for coordinators to decide. Phlsph7 (talk) 18:10, 28 October 2026 (UTC)

That’s fine, thank you. Sorry for the late reply, I’ve just taken an exam. Chorchapu (talk | edits) 19:29, 28 October 2026 (UTC)
