- Hey, @Antony-22 and Maximilian775: what do you both think of this possible ALT1:
ALT1 ... that State Automobile Mutual Insurance Company's life-size nativity scene, made in 1931, was donated to the Museum of Catholic Art and History in 2023 for display at St. Joseph Cathedral?
- It cuts down on the character count and corrects a minor verb-related grammar issue. ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:52, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hey, @Antony-22 and Maximilian775: what do you both think of this possible ALT1:
- @Maximilian775 and Pbritti: Nice improvement, but according to the article and sources, the Nativity display was created in the 1960s (two sources say 1962, this source says 1966). You also might consider using "State Auto Mutual" to tighten it further. Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 18:57, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Maximilian775 and Pbritti: Just waiting for correction to hook. Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 17:38, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
