Interesting history, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. Why no image? I like the short and sweet hook, good for the month! I met the underground railway in Great Dismal Swamp maroons, DYK? - How do you feel about an infobox? Perhaps convert some allcaps in references? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:59, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for reviewing. Removed all-caps from one reference. I'm hoping to travel to take picture of current church location in coming weeks, since nothing on Wiki Commons now. Debated infobox, though this "church" isn't just the building -- it's a congregation that goes beyond a single building. So not sure if the church infobox is appropriate... --Almostds 10 February 2020
- understand - so true for most that it's more than a building, same for operas, often more organization than a hous. There's infobox organization also. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:49, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- Image: I think the drawing would show at a glance how old that is. Good luck for pic taking! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:52, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks Gerda for suggestion about "infobox organization" -- I've added that! Almostds (talk) 14:21, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
