Holy Trinity Church, Ryde

  • ... that the Cracked Bell of Trinity Church died of a broken heart and wrote to a newspaper about it? Source: Offline sources Wheeler (1968) p23 and Lane (1994) p32 both quote the full letter as part of their telling of the story; full text available on request.

5x expanded by Hassocks5489 (talk). Self-nominated at 13:52, 10 March 2020 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Length ok, sufficiently expanded (nice work!) and nominated in time. QPQ done.
  • Hook is concise, amusing and would indeed be suitable for 1 April. It is cited inline to reliable offline sources.
  • Article is well developed and cited inline to reliable sources, generally offline/paywalled, so I'm AGFing. I only have minor queries -- I assume the short quotations in the lead come from Ref 5? I tend to try to put the citation right next to the quotation. Were you able to check refs 1,3? I don't have access to those. Is there any ISBN for Lane (1994)? I thought by that date most books had one.
  • Under Organ, the in-text url needs to be converted to a source or an external link.
  • Both images in the article are suitably licensed if an image is desired but I agree the hook might work best without an image of the church.
  • Earwig found nothing, and spot checks found no close paraphrasing issues though I wasn't able to access most of the sources.

Template:Ping Thanks for your review. I have fixed the National Pipe Organ Register URL. Lane (1994) doesn't have an ISBN, perhaps because it was published locally on a small scale by the (former) South Wight Borough Council. I have a free British Newspaper Archive subscription and have checked refs [1] and [3]; information correlates with that quoted elsewhere.
