Improved to Good Article status by Yakikaki (talk). Self-nominated at 16:25, 15 October 2020 (UTC).

Substantial GA, on fine sources, Swedish sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and worth being shown! I made some changes regarding pic placement, - revert if you don't like. I am not happy with the hook wording, disliking hooks with "possibly" anyway, thinking that "murals" required a plural verb, and feeling that "with what is possibly" is not an elegant solution. The fact seems more interesting than the ALT, so please try harder ;) - Also waiting for qpq. The caption might mention "apse". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:44, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi Gerda, thanks for the review. I'm not sure I completely understand all of your concerns here, but would

ALT2: ... that Vä Church is decorated with some of the oldest church murals in Sweden (pictured)? work for you? Or as another alternative,

ALT3: ... that some of the oldest church murals in Sweden are found in Vä Church (pictured) ? Let me know if I'm on the right track for you here. QPQ coming up. Added "in the apse of" to the caption. Kind regards, Yakikaki (talk) 11:52, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

QPQ now done. Yakikaki (talk) 12:20, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Thank you, ALT2 is fine. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:57, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

I wonder who wrote end edited the text, called it good and denied others to change this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%A4_Church It seems to be the result of cherry picking: suppression of views or misconceptions on the basis of incomplete basis, because one refers to selected attitudes, while others are ignored – and since the church is the subject for a researcher seminar in February 2022, you just have to open the page for more complete and newer information, but also text that has been ignored. That is, if wikipedia in English is to be credible. 188.181.176.114 (talk) 13:15, 5 February 2022 (UTC)Jan Eskildsen

Can you be more specific about what you find problematic? From what you write above it's impossible to understand. Also, nobody is prohibited from changing the page. Please do so if you think you can improve the article. If you want to know more about how, a good place to start is here. Or you can specify what you want to change and maybe I can help you. However, please do assume good faith and refrain from accusing editors of cherry picking, suppressing views or consciously trying to create bias. That is not helpful and will not help the article.
