Christ Church, Moss Side, Manchester

Hi. The images are certainly very arresting. I wonder if they might be better in a gallery in WikiCommons? I also have the desire to add lots of pictures to my favourite articles but Wiki guidance is that photos in the articles should "tell the story." What do you think?

I think they are part of the 'story' as show some of the architectural features that make this church interesting - plus a lot of photos on Wikipedia are quite dreary and uninspired. I believe they are good quality photos that illustrate and convey an architectural space - what a good encylcopedia needs. Plus I have a lot more photos I would have like to have added!

However, I have taken out one of the window photos and added a rear view exterior shot so that the range of visual perspectives is more balanced.

I like the article, by the way - would you consider doing similar articles for other religious buildings in the area - such as the Sikh temple and Polish RC church nearby?

Fine, we'll leave them where they are. I agree they're more exciting then many on wikipedia. I'm glad you like the article. Its only a stub that I did as part of completing articles on all the Grade I and II* listed buildings. When that's done, I'll have at look at the Polish church and Sikh temple. Best regards.
