• I'm listed as one of the creators. I'd suggest rephrasing to highlight the contrast between "archbishop" and "prison chaplain" and remove unessential "missionary": that Gherardo Gambelli, the incoming Archbishop of Florence, served as a prison chaplain in Chad for more than a decade?

• @Rutsq: good suggestion. Please feel free to suggest any other ALT hooks. —Bloom6132 (talk) 00:05, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

• New enough; definitely long enough; presentable; no images; and QPQ fulfilled. Original hook is spicy, although I feel awkward just repeating someone else's quote about the subject; ALT1 is bland but also fine. Earwig can't find any copyvios and it rephrases all the cited sources. Two slight citation problems: the archdiocese of Florence press release link has decayed (I fixed this), and the Avvenire source does not support the claim that "his return to Italy in 2023 [was] at the request of his ordinary, Giuseppe Betori, Archbishop of Florence". I suspect a bad translation turned "rendere noto" into "made certain", when it really means "made public". A simple fix is to remove the "at the...Florence" clause, which is not necessary for the rest of the sentence (I did not fix this). Otherwise, the sources seem reliable: the only iffy one is the archdiocese of Florence press release, which may not be indepedent &emdash; but that is not the sole citation for the claim it supports.
