 * The idea that FR, Sr. was the "first Filipino architect" appears to rely solely on a plaque at the site -- this is an extraordinary claim needing a rocksolid authoritative source. EEng (talk) 03:45, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 * The source from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts justifies the claim, even the United Architects of the Philippines (the official professional organization of architects in the Philippines), and an article from Philippine Star-- Carlojoseph14 (talk) 04:32, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, missed those somehow. At ease. EEng (talk) 05:49, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Symbol question.svg As nothing happened in a while I'm taking over. Interesting article on good sources, offline source accepted AGF. - Name: If it was my article, the name would be San Ignacio, Intramuros, but up to you and Filipino naming conventions. - I did a bit of formatting. - Without the giant map, I think the article would look nicer, but up to you. - The headers about sites probably mean buildings on the same site? - Please add to the lead that it is in ruins. - I added a pic, think we can skip "Sr." if we specify "the first", skip Manila if we have Filipino, and get to


 * ALT1: ... that the fourth San Ignacio Church in Intramuros, now in ruins (pictured), was designed by Felix Roxas, the first recorded Filipino architect? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:26, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg The length, date of creation and copyvio check all seem fine (Earwig's tool suggests a copyvio, but that's a website which mirrors this article, and not the other way around). However, I also take issue with the wording of the hook. Two of the sources you've presented above (including the one used in the inline citation of the article) say that he was the first recorded architect, not that he was the first architect. I know that seems to be the same thing, but there could be a big difference between the two. Could you please change the article and the hook to include the word 'recorded,' as in the citations? Alternatively, you could use a different hook if desired.-RHM22 (talk) 05:45, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
 * , please see changes. Added the word recorded to the hook and article. --Carlojoseph14 (talk) 11:32, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg It looks good now! As stated above, date, length, copyvio check are fine, and the hook is interesting and cited to a reliable online source.-RHM22 (talk) 15:07, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
