- Article was created on the same day as nomination. Article meets adequate quality standards and contains enough prose for DYK, my only suggestions are for "the western end of the building" to be potentially reworded just due to similarity in the source, and for the double space in the 'History' section to be fixed. Very interesting hook! I took a look at the source and I noticed that it had mentioned "Moriori, Maori, or Pakeha" (meaning the missionaries failed to convert Indigenous or European New Zealanders) and I'm wondering if this, or the fact that this took place in New Zealand, would be worth mentioning in the hook as well. Picture is relevant to the hook. QPQ done. Great work on the article! Please ping when concerns have been addressed. Thanks, B3251 (talk) 20:30, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- @B3251:
Ooh, good catch! Fixed this in the article. For the hook, I generally try to condense the hooks as much as I can, but. ALT1": ... that over the course of several decades, the missionaries of New Zealand's German Mission House (pictured) failed to convert a single person?" could work!
