Church of the Jacobins

(

)

Reliquary of Thomas Aquinas in the Church of the Jacobins

... that although the Church of the Jacobins (pictured) in Toulouse, France, was founded by the future Saint Dominic, the relics housed there are those of Saint Thomas Aquinas?

Created by Awien (talk). Self-nominated at 17:07, 15 July 2016 (UTC).

It is long enough, new enough. However, the nominator, User:Awien has still not reviewed another DYK.

Also, I assume it is this category on commons, why not add some pictures?

And finally, the references are "raw", instead of, say:

<ref name="architecture.relig.free.fr">http://architecture.relig.free.fr/toulouse_jacobins.htm</ref> try:

<ref name="architecture.relig.free.fr">[http://architecture.relig.free.fr/toulouse_jacobins.htm Couvent des Jacobins de Toulouse, Historique]</ref>

Thank you for this,

Huldra:

This being my first DYK (except for a submission I quickly aborted years ago) I believe I'm exempt from QPQ.

Pictures would be fabulous, and yes, that's the place. However, I don't know how, I'm just a gnome - I rely on the fairies.

Re raw refs, I'll try to figure out how to fix those within about the next 12 hours.

If any of this is a deal breaker, I'll just withdraw the nom. Not worth a huge hassle.

Well, I've tried to fix the refs and can't, and don't have the first clue about pictures so that's not going to happen. The Jacobins is a genuinely significant church that somehow didn't have an article which is why I created one. If there are people who would like to fix its shortcomings that would be wonderful, even if that makes it ineligible for dyk. Cheers, Awien (talk) 11:52, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Fixed refs, I think (the one that was the problem). Thanks for tip, Chrisrus. Awien (talk) 12:55, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

User:Awien I think it would be a great pity if it did not become a DYK; as you say: it is a very notable building. However, I have just edited the article (a little), and I therefor don´t think I should be the one to OK it. Could someone else please review it? Huldra (talk) 13:09, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Wonderful! Grand merci! (The Palmier too would leave me eternally in your debt . . . ). Best, Awien (talk) 13:23, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

User:Awien: The Palmier?? Huldra (talk) 13:28, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

The feature they're most proud of, this: [1]. But I don't see it on Commons, alas. Awien (talk) 14:54, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

User:Awien Actually, that link contains a picture...taken from commons! (Now added to the article.) And common have a whole sub-cat for it, cheers, Huldra (talk) 15:38, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Huldra: Great! And I really appreciate your help. Bien amicalement, Awien (talk) 17:02, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

User:Awien: a pleasure to help, I really hope it will make a DYK. (But it needs a new reviewer now). This source is still problematic, though: it looks like a blog, which is usually not acceptable; could you find a replacement? Huldra (talk) 20:18, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

I've taken out "unique" (who cares anyway), and substituted the Encyclopédie Universalis as the ref. Awien (talk) 22:02, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts have inline citations, the image is appropriately licensed and the article is neutral. The sources are mostly in French and I doubt there are any copyright problems with the article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:56, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
