Trinity church, King George Island, Antarctica

• ... that there are seven churches on Antarctica (Trinity Church on King George Island pictured)?

• This list is new enough and has 1520 characters (234 words) of "readable prose" outside the tables. It is written in neutral style and the hook fact and other claims are supported by inline citations. Spot checks reveal no evidence of plagiarism or close paraphrasing. The hook is short and interesting (I had no idea there were any churches in Antarctica). The picture is suitably licenced (although it might be useful to have (Trinity church, King George Island pictured) rather than (sample pictured). QPQ still needed.— Rod ^talk 08:59, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

The main source messynessychic.com is a blog and not WP:RS which is used to source the quantity of seven churches on Antarctica. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 04:49, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for the reviews. I am still waiting to find a hook that I feel comfortable reviewing for QPQ. I will post when I have competed one. I have added two refs for the seven number, one from Mashable[1], and one from Vice[2]. The vice one is problematic as it states 6 churches, but it helps clarify some of the Antarctic Churches not on Antarctica.Found5dollar (talk) 14:06, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for doing the refs and QPQ.— Rod ^talk 08:23, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

That messynessychic.com being non-RS shouldn't be used at all in the article. This was just a passer-by comment. @Rodw: please don't wait for me to return back here. You may continue with your review after this issue is sorted out. And that "sample pictured" was added by me. You guys can change it as seems suitable. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 05:37, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder to return to this nomination. Do you think the Mashable article which is also used to support the claim in the hook counts as a reliable source? If so, the messynessychic one could be removed and the hook would still be supported.— Rod ^talk 15:42, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

I removed the MessyNessyChic reference. I also updated the hook's (pictured) note to include which church is pictured.Found5dollar (talk) 03:59, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. I think this now addresses the concerns & therefore "Good to Go".— Rod ^talk 18:46, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

• I'm not familiar with Mashable, but I would think you can find a list of these 7 churches in a reliable source. According to this page, one of the churches closed in 2015. Yoninah (talk) 21:31, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
