I'll be glad to take this review. In the next few days, I'll do a close readthrough, noting here any issues I can't immediately fix myself, and then follow with the criteria checklist. Thanks in advance for your work on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 21:24, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Checklist

[edit]

This article is excellently written and sourced; I see no significant problems on my first pass. Very fine work--thanks for all the effort you put into it.

I made some very minor copyedits as I went that I'd invite you to double-check. The most persistent issue I noticed is that "the king" and "the earl" were sometimes capitalized and sometimes not. It's my understanding that "king" should generally only be capitalized when preceding a name or in a specific legal term, and I've corrected accordingly, but feel free to revert me if I'm wrong. In either case, though, this usage should be made consistent in the article. -- Khazar2 (talk) 04:05, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rate Attribute Review Comment
1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. Prose is very good; spotchecks of sources 2,3, and 19 show no copyright issues.
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
7. Overall assessment. Pass.
