Weird that "Diego" is anglicised to "Iago" and "Margarita" to "Margaret". Although I understand that the Catholic Encyclopedia is doing this, so the anglicisation is sourced, but it's still rather odd.
Found a different source for Diego. Haven't been able to find anything to cite for Margarita, alas.
Page numbers needed for verifying Lehfeldt 2017.
Put 'em in.
Hrm, the page numbers you put in don't appear to be correct, at least for the linked copy on Google Books. Many of the page numbers you cite are over 400 pages in, but the linked copy doesn't have that many pages and most of the info on Escobar seems to be in the last chapter, which has a page range of 175-216. --Grnrchst (talk) 17:53, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, might be worth checking against the paginated version on Google Books and using the page numbers from that then. In any case, thanks for explaining. --Grnrchst (talk) 18:10, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Spotcheck: [8][9] Can't find anything about "two servants" or the exact number of women in the convent. Is this in Lehfelt 2017? This is why page numbers would be helpful.
Yep! Sorry about that. Page numbers should be there now.
Details for The Month: Should be set to cite magazine, not cite book; volume should be set to 63; issue should be set to 290; "The Month" should be set to the magazine= field and linked to; the title should be replaced with "The Second Summer"; editor should be credited as Richard Frederick Clarke; specific date would be August 1888; provide the issn 0027-0172.
Magazine citations always get me. Fixed.
If any more details could be provided for the Index ac status causarum beatificationis servorum dei et canonizationis beatorum, that would be good, as Vatican records are extraordinarily difficult to verify.
You're telling me. I ended up ordering a physical book for that one. Yeah, I've included the complete quote.
Any reason why recogimiento is redlinked? Is there a possibility of a future article on it? Asking because I couldn't find one on the Spanish Wikipedia.
Eh. There's a fair amount of critical literature on it and I think it could pretty easily carry one. But I'm not at all wedded to it.
"Luis de Ponte" Should be corrected to "Luis de la Puente", throughout the article. Again I understand that "de Ponte" is coming from the Catholic Encyclopedia, but other sources cited correctly use "Luis de la Puente".
Not sure there's a need to cite the same source so many times in the same paragraph, if you're not providing direct quotations. This paragraph is even drawing from the same page of the source.
Extremely fair. Changed.
Spotcheck: [8] Verified.
Citations [2] and [14] could probably be merged, as they appear to the same source on two different websites. I would recommend using the Wikisource version, rather than the external link to New Advent.
Lead is currently rather short and lacking in information. It could do with some expansion, e.g. details about her visions; about her convent, her life experiences, etc.
Reworked it a bit. Let me know what you think.
"not belonging to an enclosed religious order." Where is this stated? If there's no source that states this explicitly, this should be cut.
"Marina was declared Venerable." Does this have a source? The text of the article states her beatification was delayed for decades, and then the case opened, but it's not explicit that she was successfully beatified.
Good catch! Added that explicitly.
I don't think the current image in the infobox is a good choice for the leading image, as Marina is quite small in the frame compared to Jesus. Consider changing it out for one of the portrait-style paintings in the Marina de Escobar commons category. This image could be moved down to one of the sections, like Spirituality.
So I was torn on this one, because I agree with your complaint here, but also none of the other images are available in very high quality. Thoughts?
I get you. I think this one would be the best option, but I understand the hesistancy in respect to quality. It's just that Marina is in barely one quarter of the vision painting, and it's very difficult to tell that she's supposed to be the subject when viewing in preview. --Grnrchst (talk) 16:11, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be clear, I still think the other image is worth including in the article, just in a section rather than as the leading image. --Grnrchst (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
Prose is fantastically written, with no obvious spelling or grammatical errors. My main issue here is the anglicisation of certain Spanish names, but this is a relatively minor problem.
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
One of the references isn't properly formatted, another is incomplete, and many of the books don't cite specific page numbers, which makes verification a pain. This is my main issue with the article.
B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
Leading image used is relevant, but I think it could be replaced with a better one, as it's difficult to tell Marina is even in it at low-res. Alt text is provided but the image isn't currently captioned.
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
On prose alone, this article is terrific, with no real issues. The main problems I've found are in verifiability, as some of the citations are incomplete. If specific page numbers can be provided for the books that I've flagged, and my other comments are addressed, then I will be more than happy to pass this review. @Moriwen: Nice work on this! Ping me when you feel you've addressed everything and I'll give this another look over. --Grnrchst (talk) 11:35, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
... that Spanish mystic Marina de Escobar founded a convent but never joined one? Source: “She died before finishing her work on the convent and thus never formally entered, but it was clearly her intention to do so. Given the previous success of her uncloistered following, why did she propose to alter her lifestyle so dramatically and insist that others do the same?” (Religious Women in Golden Age Spain, Elizabeth A. Lehfeldt p. 207)
Article length and age are fine, reliable sources are used, 0% match on no copyright violations, hook is interesting and is cited (I added the page number to the provided citation). Approved. Ready for DYK Rublamb (talk) 00:40, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
