Comments

A lot of amendments were necessary and most were corrections of one kind or another. You need to be more thorough in proofreading and copyediting before nominating an article and also check facts: for example, Selby is not a city, only a town. Even so, and despite being short in length, the article provides a full coverage of the Davara's career and is an interesting read. Having done the necessary corrections, it now ticks all of the applicable boxes above and I'm happy to promote it to GA. Well done. No Great Shaker (talk) 10:17, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
