The bulk of the Architecture section is copied (at best, very close paraphrase) from source no. 4. This will need to be rewritten. Cmprince (talk) 11:32, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

I've done some rewriting of the article, although I must note that it's difficult to describe architecture without using the esoteric terminology found in that cited source. I did find that having a photo of the church exterior made it easier to understand the description -- and thus convert parts of it into my own words. See how it looks now. --Orlady (talk) 18:36, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Age and size check out. I copied one source each for the lead paragraph and one for the hook fact, and all sources check out. No QPQ needed for non-self-nom. No obvious problems with the image. And Orlady did a great job cleaning up the paraphrasing. Nice save! Cmprince (talk) 22:55, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
