Checking against GA criteria

 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * As of 2010, the church is closed (and has been since 2004) because of structural problems This statement will soon be dated. better you just say that it has been closed since 2004.
 * Tweaked. BencherliteTalk 14:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The parish priest is Father Michael Ryan... How come, if the church is closed?
 * Why shouldn't it have a parish priest? The parish remains, even if the church is temporarily closed until repairs are carried out. BencherliteTalk 14:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Understood. Jezhotwells (talk) 18:51, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * The architect was Giuseppe Rinvolucri, an Italian engineer from Piedmont. He had been a prisoner of war held in Wales,  Italy was allied to Britain and France in WWI. Needs explanation of why he was a prisoner of war?
 * References appear OK, several repeat the information that Rinvolucri was a prisoner of war, but without explanation. I found one oblique reference in a Google search to his having been interned or subjected to restrictions in WWII, as many Italians were. Perhaps this is the source of the confusion?
 * Well, as CADW (a high-quality source) says he came to Wales as a POW before later settling down, we may be in a "verifiability not truth" issue here. I can't find anything about why he was a POW, but obviously he can't have been a WWII POW who later settled in Wales, as this is a 1930s design. I'd be surprised if "interned" had been muddled up with "POW", since the two concepts are very different. BencherliteTalk 14:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I think it would be better to omit this statement as it is clearly incorrect. I have asked for opinions at WT:WikiProject Military history. Jezhotwells (talk) 18:51, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I have found out a little more. Rinvolucri's son, Mario, states that his father fought against the Austro-Hungarians, i.e. on the Italian (Allied) side.[ ]  He states that his father was an immigrant.. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:25, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, well, the easiest thing to do is to remove it and see if anything better comes up in the future. Perhaps if I make it to Amlwch from my end of Anglesey I might find out more.  BencherliteTalk 10:38, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
