A fact from Cote Baptist Church appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 4 July 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that all the internal fittings of Cote Baptist Church in Oxfordshire (pictured) date from 1869?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/July.

Why is the fact that the original internal fittings of this modern building still exist considered an item of special, remarkable interest on Wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.64.175.140 (talk) 13:11, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that the fact is "an item of special, remarkable interest", (does it have to fall into these categories for DYK?), but IMO it's a bit unusual for all the fittings in a church or chapel to date from a single year, and for them not to have been altered, restored or added to in 140 years. IME alteration and addition is the norm in most churches. So, maybe not special or remarkable, but somewhat unusual.--Peter I. Vardy (talk) 16:15, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are plenty of churches in the UK with older insides. Its nothing unusual here. 92.15.12.165 (talk) 17:41, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
