Since when "AFC" is not equivalent to "mainspace"? AFC approval qualifies as "moved to mainspace". George Ho (talk) 07:42, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
Whatever the abbreviations and rules, this article is in Main space since 27 December and was new enough when nominated. It's long enough and based on good sources. The second paragraph could use a repetition of the ref at the end. The hook: I understand the wish to keep it at one link, but "study stained glass" is one thing (which would not interest me so much), "study the 16th century stained glass windows in the King's College Chapel, Cambridge" seems much more precise and interesting to me, even without a link and without mentioning that he wrote a classic book on the topic afterwards. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:25, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
ALT2 then: ... that Hilary Wayment took a sabbatical to study the 16th century stained glass windows in King's College Chapel, Cambridge? - I cleaned up the citation for the obituary and put a ref to it after the link fact, since that seems to be the immediate source.
