Third Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops
* ... that Pope Francis told the Synod on the Family that the Church needs to "chart a middle course?" :* ALT1: ... that the debates at the Synod on the Family reflected a tension between truth and mercy?

 * Symbol question.svg. Long enough. fresh enough. Neither proposed hook works nor is stated / sourced appropriatedly. Recent event, that is seen by the choice of sources. I suggest some alternatives hookwise. Serten (talk) 05:42, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
 * My preference is still for the "middle course" hook, but if that is deemed unacceptable I like Alt 3. --Briancua (talk) 13:38, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I have struck ALT2. It is inappropriate for a Wikipedia description of a recent and difficult conference. It could be reworked to name John L. Allen, Jr. as the source of the opinion, maybe, but how many readers would have any idea who he is and why his views matter? Do they matter? Aymatth2 (talk) 03:48, 30 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed, including checking neutrality and close paraphrasing, as well as hooks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:17, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Disappointing that doing something so simple had to wait so long. Anyway, date, length and hook all OK. No close paraphrasing. Creator has only 4 credits and since nom was made before the rule change, no need for QPQ here. Good to go at long last.  The C of E God Save the Queen!  ( talk ) 11:58, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
