Furthermore, the quote in the proposed hook comes from the sources' authors, not a first-hand source (eg. a contemporary and/or someone involved with the convent). I don't know of the relevant WP policy, but it's generally in bad taste to use quotes in writing like that and quotes should usually include attribution in the prose (see [[Wikipedia:Quotations]] and [[MOS:QUOTE]]).

For example, an article about a book that fails to summarize the book's contents, but contains only a bio of the author and some critics' views, is likely to be rejected as insufficiently comprehensive." This article doesn't really say anything about the church ''itself'' (there's history and etymology)...where exactly is it located (be more specific than Rome; could use an infobox)? What goes on there today? The end of the history section states that it was turned into a "a missionary college" in 1861. So is it a functioning church for the public? A religious college? Both?

::Regarding the hooks...the proposed hook is not appropriate for the above reasoning.

Sant'Ambrogio della Massima

5x expanded by Nikkimaria (talk). Self nominated at 18:21, 19 February 2015 (UTC).

  • Symbol possible vote.svg Expanded, long enough, article well-cited, & QPQ check. The three hooks are sourced, but the proposed hook as well as most quotes in the article are not properly cited in the article.

Hello AHeneen. I have added more content to the article to address your concerns about completeness, though it is important to note that a DYK article is not expected to be comprehensive.

I have also added clarification to ALT2 that she was a founding abbess of the restored convent; the use of offline sources is not a problem, per WP:SOURCEACCESS.
