This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed, listed below. I will check back in seven days. If these issues are addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN. Feel free to drop a message on my talk page if you have any questions, and many thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this article thus far.
This article is mostly excellent, but there are some aspects of the GA criteria that it does not meet.
- The structure of the article is rather peculiar, with that Overview section coupled with a too-short lead. The lead is the overview, and as such needs to be expanded with some of the material in Overview and the Overview dropped.
- Citations start out out well, but taper off towards the end of the article. Popular culture is entireley uncited (with a request for citation outstanding since March), and almost all of Connections to existing locations is uncited.
- The See also section needs some serious pruning. One of that length suggests that there is important material that this article is missing.
- The lead mentions his "feats with the bow", but nowhere are these mentioned in the article, which seems a strange omission to a modern reader and needs to be explained.
