The article in Polish edit

Does anyone know why the Polish version seems to be so much longer than this? Whatever sources do they have access to? KJP1 (talk) 21:22, 14 August 2017 (UTC) KJP1 (talk) 21:22, 14 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

No idea. But very intriguing. I guess we could always ask Krzysztof, who seeems quite prolific overe there. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:14, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Britain Express edit

I don't know this website, although I have seen it used elsewhere on Wikipedia. Is it considered reliable? It seems to be akin to a blog, although an extensive and well-researched one, and funded by advertising? Its entry for St Martin's, (http://www.britainexpress.com/wales/wye/churches/cwmyoy.htm), has an interesting bit on the Christ figure which we should probably cover.

Not the best source, although I have used it a number of times and not been reverted. This source also gives the year: "St Martin’s is famous for the Cwmyoy Cross which was stolen from the church in 1967 and was located in a London antique shop after being recognised by the Keeper of Sculpture at the British Museum, and returned to the church".

Well, I think yours looks a perfectly reputable source. And it has the nice extra bit about the discovery being made by the Director of the BM. Will you do the honours or shall I? KJP1 (talk) 15:54, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
I have added, in its own section, using all available sources. Please trim if necessary. I might even add Fred Hando if appropriate. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:13, 16 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
