Overall: Article is new and long enough copyvio unlikely. For the architectonical jargon, I assume good faith as I do not understand all the terms from the French source. Thanks for the interesting article and hook. As to me it is good to go.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 23:54, 3 February 2022 (UTC) yReply
The source says it was for "St. Pierre", now the angel depicted is at Saint Quentin and St Pierre doesn't appear in the article. How about adding a phrase or two about St.Pierre and its relation with St. Quentin?Paradise Chronicle (talk) 16:33, 3 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi Paradise Chronicle and thanks for the review! Indeed, the sculptures seem to have moved around a bit, that's why I added the paragraph "They were originally made for another Tournai church but since 2010 they are displayed in Saint Quentin." I don't know the exact story behind the moving of the sculptures, and I'm not sure I can find out, but I'll do my best to investigate further if you want? Or just add that it was made for St. Pierre (St. Peter)? I could also try to add a bit more about the sculptures themselves, I realise I didn't even mention the subject matter of them in the article.

Of course, or perhaps replace it with an alternative one? How about either of these? Sorry if I'm messing things up here with the editing, this is not my forte. Alternative picAlternative pic 2
