Most tenures were converted into socage in 1660, but can anybody explain when socage (paying rent for one's land) was abolished? Count Truthstein (talk) 20:04, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Barschina?

Why is this linked to the Russian page on Barschina? Barschina was work, not money, according to that page, so this should really link to obrok (оброк). Malick78 (talk) 16:33, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Interlanguage_links. Language links are centralized now to prevent vandalism (and mis-linking, presumably!). Student7 (talk) 23:45, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

eytmology

What is the etymology? This needs to be included.174.3.125.23 (talk) 12:02, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dienstmann equivalence

The description of socage tenure here does not sound anything like what I understand the status of Dienstmänner (or, to use the Latin equivalent, ministeriales) to have been. Ministerialhood seems to have been closer in its origins to serjeanty than socage, and the status of ministerials developed differently from that of serjeants, particularly after the Staufer period, when the taint of servitude was lost and they assimilated into the ranks of the free nobility. Socage does not appear to have had a direct equivalent in Germany.--Masque (talk) 14:29, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Copy edit

Looking this over for copy edit. Tomorrow&tomorrow&tomorrow (talk) 22:33, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Added citations tag; I'm not familiar enough with this subject matter to be confident improving but I did make the writing clearer. Tomorrow&tomorrow&tomorrow (talk) 23:04, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
