 * Symbol question.svg - Interesting church article, and great job with the expansion. The hook checks out, but I've spotted a few MOS errors in the 'Beliefs and Programs' section that should be fixed first (one of which is that 'Beliefs and Programs' should be 'Beliefs and programs'). The number of quotations in this section also seems a bit excessive... are these really necessary?  Arctic   Night  20:25, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Maybe it's my journalistic background, but I like using quotes because, in this instance, it both breaks the necessary dryness of our house style and makes the humanity palpable. I don't see these two quotes as excessive ... they are reliably sourced, relatively short and demonstrate how the refugees have changed the church, in its pastor's own words.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Date and length also checked. I don't think the quotes are excessive, and would expect to see some in a section about a church's beliefs. --EncycloPetey (talk) 05:26, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
