Symbol question.svg The footnoted article mentions Bieberach, but does not include the information about the Guinness Book of World Records. The hook above would need an inline cite for the printed version of Guinness. Overall article quality is very nice, and the online German-language citatations check out. The editor has chosen a slightly different emphasis from the German article, shortened it up, and included citations to back up its summary of the origins of the Osterbrunnen tradition. An alternate hook, below, would work with the article as is.

ALT1 ... that Osterbrunnen, the traditional decoration of public fountains with Easter eggs, has spread beyond the Fränkische Schweiz? Djembayz (talk) 16:14, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
  • Er, If I may interject here, I have had a great fondness for German since I was in short trousers, but would it be possible for us to say Franconian Switzerland? I have never heard anyone say "Fränkische Schweiz" in English and wonder where it might all end... Moonraker (talk) 20:51, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
ALT2 ... that the tradition of Franconian Switzerland to decorate public fountains with Easter eggs, Osterbrunnen (pictured), has spread beyond Franconia? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:06, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
