:*[[File:Symbol question.svg|16px]] Sufficiently new, long enough, neutrally written, cites sources, prose is well written and accessible.

Therefore my suggestion is to come up with an alternative blurb such as "the Students' Building is modeled after Christ Church of Alexandria, Virginia, a church once attended by George Washington?"

Students' Building
... that Vassar College's Students' Building (pictured) is modeled after George Washington's church?
- Reviewed: Gravel Run (Black Creek)
Moved to mainspace by Bobamnertiopsis (talk). Self nominated at 20:05, 13 March 2015 (UTC).
- 16px Sufficiently new, long enough, neutrally written, cites sources, prose is well written and accessible. I think the blurb could use revisions, however, as Christ Church in Alexandria is not George Washington's exclusively, but a church that Washington (and others) once attended. Therefore my suggestion is to come up with an alternative blurb such as "the Students' Building is modeled after Christ Church of Alexandria, Virginia, a church once attended by George Washington?"

I think there is a subtle but important difference, and the current article of Christ Church does not necessarily suggest that Washington attended on a regular basis, but only that he was there occasionally.

- The Christ Church article says "frequented" but it's not really something worth belaboring.

- 16px OK, I'll do the review. ALT2 is hooky but is not cited inline.
