Mechanicsburg United Methodist Church

 * ... that the current Mechanicsburg United Methodist Church (pictured) was the congregation's fifth church building in eighty years?
 * Comment: Expanded from 190 characters to 4927. Note that there's a source for a building #1 soon after 1814, another in 1819, another in 1839, another in 1858 (those are all in the first paragraph of the first section), and then we have "they chose to build yet another new house..." in 1894.

 * ✅ New enough. Twenty-plus times expansion on 4 Feb 2013 from two sentence stub to Class B (in my judgment but will await a project member for formal assessment) article.
 * ✅ Long enough.
 * ✅ Excellent sources (many available via Google book free download and published before 1923).
 * ✅ Hook: Size OK (116 characters and spaces).  Neutral.  Accurate and supported by in-line citations.  Just hooky enough.
 * The hook fact was not explicitly stated but supported by sources and the article text.
 * ✅ Edited the text of the article so the fact is explicitly stated and added page numbers to existing citation to support the fact.
 * ✅ Image: Taken and uploaded by nominator to PD.  OK at 100x100px (as in the Historic Places list).  Format correct for main page.
 * ✅ QPQ done.
