Sisters of Mercy after three decades of service rather than make a statement against
abortion?

I have an issue with the sentence "Unusually, Bevilacqua sent a letter directly to Mansour without communicating his intention to President Kane or any of the Detroit leaders of the Sisters of Mercy." The word "unusually" seems to be adding some bias. If it's not usual for him to have done this, perhaps more information on what is normal protocol would be helpful.
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
Overall: This is a good article, with the exception of the lead, which is woefully short and does not incorporate the most defining issue of her life. The lead needs to be expanded per
MOS:LEAD. I'll put this on hold for improvements.
Pass/Fail:
Okay, I will consider the problem and expand the lead section.

I put an image caption in place, I replaced a fact tag with a cite, and I believe I addressed the "unusually" issue, explaining it to the reader. I'm still considering the lead section.

Thank you for addressing those issues. All that's needed now is an expansion of the lead. What is already there can stay, but there needs to be discussion of the controversy regarding the abortion stance. If I can ask a favor, please try to have this done by Thursday December 22 at the latest, because after that I'll be traveling with minimal access to a computer. I'd like to close this before I leave. –

I lengthened the lead section. Let me know if it needs further tweaking.

That'll do. I can pass this as a good article now. Well done. –

Thank you for the fine review, especially for not tossing the nomination out after seeing the two tags! Cheers -

She had a degree in chemistry but no evidence she ever practiced as a scientist. If WPWS consensus disagrees with this, switch it back. --
