  • Long enough, new enough. No plagiarism that I can see. Hook accepted on good faith; it is referenced. I'm jealous that the author can claim to live in Rome. One thing--the article needs copyedits throughout to English the syntax a bit. But it's good enough for DYK. Drmies (talk) 00:46, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Alessandro57, why not put a picture of the building in there? The Rafael thumbnail looks a bit gaudy, in this tiny format. Drmies (talk) 00:47, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
    • Done, Drmies. The reason was that a decent picture of the building could be taken only last Thursday morning...I will try to do copyediting, but unfortunately my English is and always will remain washed in Tiber, and not in Thames (or Potomac) :-).

  • Hallo @Yoninah:, and thanks for copyediting! I totally missed the palazzo Caprini article...Now I put a "main" template linking to it (although at the moment my article covers much more the subject, but maybe in the future an expert of Bramante will make a great article out of that stub...) :-)Palazzo Caprini was the core around which the Palazzo dei Convertendi grew: it was much smaller, and had a totally different appearance. The Palazzo dei Convertendi came into being through successive enlargments (I added some info about them) and a total external reconstruction of the crumbling Caprini's palace, so that at the end only some rooms inside the building (like the one where Raffaello painted his last works) could be identified at the end of 19th century as dating back to Caprini's time.

  • Sorry about the delay; I forgot to put this page on my watchlist. I read through the entire article and it reads very nicely. Thanks for adding the Palazzo Caprini information. New enough, long enough, well referenced, neutrally written. As most sources are offline, AGF on sources. Offline hook fact AGF and cited inline. QPQ done. Image is freely-licensed. Good to go.
