  • ... that St. Stephanus in Bork (pictured), a Baroque church built in the 1720s, received a large former wayside cross in the 20th century? Source: several
  • Reviewed: A Surge of Power (Jen Reid) 2020
  • Comment: The cross is visible, but barely so, on the interior pic, while the quite unusual combination of a Baroque nave with Romanesque-Revival aisles is visible - without further words - on the exterior pic.

  • This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. I did some copyediting and have commented out an incomprehensible bit of the text. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:08, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
    Thank you. The bit which is also (besides on the de article) on the official website (and mirrors), says that the choir is closed 5/12, - perhaps you can help. Imagine a circle divided by 12, and five of those, so just a bit less than a semi-circle. Sorry, I don't have the vocabulary. It's matched by the five windows. No problem if not. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:36, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
    Perhaps Ceoil could help. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:37, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
    I'm guessing that it refers to the shape of the Apse behind the choir, which - presumably - is not quite a full semi-circle. See here as to the ordering of choir and apse. Ceoil (talk) 20:28, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
    Thank you, apse is the word, and now it's not a semi-circle but has five straight lines. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:44, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
    Ok, now makes perfect sense. Ceoil (talk) 20:48, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this. Gerda, please add an inline cite for the 1720s fact in the hook. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 20:53, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
    I duplicated the ref. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:30, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Restoring tick per Cwmhiraeth's review. Yoninah (talk) 21:50, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
