[edit] GA failed

This article is pretty good, but I have failed it because there is a section missing which could take a while to rectify. The article has no information on the architectural style of the building, which is important.

  • Lead needs to be expanded because it needs to summarise the whole article. At the moment the lead is only about the history.
  • The article needs more 3rd party refs. At the moment a lot of the article is sourced to the museum website. The museum owns the church so a 3rd party ref is more professional
  • You need to use "St. Nicholas' Church" consistently in the article as that is how you named it. At the moment, in some places you have used lower caps or not used the dot.
  • Minor artworks needs to be converted into prose
  • A section on architecture is missing
  • Something needs to be said about when the restoration happened and how much it cost etc. Did the church sell the building to the museum owners? how much did it cost?
  • Ref #3 is someone's personal site. Who is the publisher of site 5?
  • The publishers of the sites need to be written down. Do you have a page number for the book?
  • "the raging hordes" is a POV statement
  • The language is not so good in some places, but I can do a copyedit if the rest of the article is fixed up?
  • This sounds like a major landmark, can more info be found out about it from old history books?
