Initial thoughts
This needs expansion to effectively summarize the article. Possibly Done --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 11:14, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
I would recommend an infobox like in St Dona's Church, Llanddona. Done--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 11:05, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
I'd like to see an architectural summary like in the St Dona's Church, Llanddona. History looks pretty sound, but will read thoroughly tomorrow.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:07, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
Actually it makes sense here to include history and architecture together, you cover both.
I was surprised to see the placement of the four images added by the reviewer tonight, since the bottom two violate WP:LAYIM, part of the layout requirements for a GA from WP:WIAGA. Even as an aesthetic manner, the final two images look odd, as the first overflows the Modern section, and the second even overflows the References section.
The two images in the History section violate MOS:IMAGES—not a strictly a GA requirement, I don't believe, but nevertheless strongly recommended—in that they have text between them, which doesn't follow this rule: "Avoid sandwiching text between two images that face each other, and between an image and an infobox or similar." If there isn't enough room for both of them in that section without boxing text between them—and both of them specifically illustrate text from the final paragraph, since the interior shot is of the chancel—then either they need to be resized smaller, or one should be deleted.

I added them in a rush last night. They are not supposed to be final, more a "here's some more images, arrange them as you like". Especially as I'd mentioned an architecture section.. I'm equally surprised that you apparently think I am unaware of this, especially as I've been here almost 6 times longer than you have. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:16, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
Well there are a lot of people or things on wikipedia which are "not really liked". On your talk page, Bluemoonset expresses his gladness that you are reviewing his article which could also be taken as a bias and therefore also "not really liked". Personally I see no difference, and it shouldn't matter anyway so long as the review is neutral and constructive (which it is). ♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:03, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
I was not aware when I initially asked that he had not done a review before. It's still fine because if he gets stuck I can ask somebody else for their input. He hasn't finished his review yet. I did ask him to follow the format of a past GAC though. But I started Grapple X off as a reviewer after I reviewed several of his and he's now a prolific GA reviewer. As I said though, I see no problems with tit for tat reviews providing they are neutral and constructive. its not as if a deal has been made "you pass mine and I'll pass yours straight away" scenario. And why wait until what is likely to be the end of the summer before anybody else reviews it? And besides, if an article is passes and you strongly object you can always take it to GAR or provide your input into the review if it looks like it will be passed. Based on past very good experiences with you Pyrotec in which you appeared a laid back easy-going and highly capable reviewer, a thoroughly decent chap in summary, you'll forgive me for thinking your comments here have been a little uppity. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:29, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Yeah I appreciate your concerns but that is exactly what I was keen to dismiss you from thinking. I was a little heated/uppity in my response here as I didn't want you thinking that just because I said about the "tit for tat" review at the same time that this in any way would jeopardise the productivity of the reviews or make them any poorer than if anybody else had reviewed them in a few weeks. I can see though, especially as Gilderien appears to be newbie at reviewing that you might have thought this and this is why you spoke here as you found it concerning to the fair GA process.

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
I made some adjustments. I would generally prefer history and architecture to be separate but in this particular circumstance I think its fine. I think this just meets requirements now for a small village church.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:48, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
Thank you very much, especially for your many minor changes that I simply had not seen. Your check is in the post ;) --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 12:53, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
