The current hook is a bit hard to read and might need some trimming. How about:

ALT1 ... that following its deconsecration, the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Venice and its grounds have been used as a stable, a tobacco warehouse, and a prison?

The article also has a couple of stub tags (which it shouldn't have, since it's not a stub); both need to be removed before this is approved. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:18, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough. Mostly cited, though I added one citation needed tag. Earwig doesn't spot any violations, though I would recommend rephrasing "warehouse for a tobacco factory" if possible. The lede is too short, only a sentence, and this needs to be fixed before the article can be approved. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:44, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Beefed up the lede (though left the tag), added the missing citation, and paraphrased the tobacco reference. Thanks -Bogger (talk) 10:52, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thank you. Good to go. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 12:02, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
