GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
    B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:
    Are there any other sources we can use that mentions Theophylact? Two sources seems very little. Are there any other reliable scholarly sources that give passing mention to him that we tack following another existing citation.
  1. C. It contains no original research:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  2. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  3. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  4. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  5. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  6. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:

*Please mention his lifespan in the intro after the name: (Birth - Death). *Please include his monastic name Eustratius in the introduction. *Infobox mentions he was born in Constantinople. Do we know that for sure? It is also not in the body of the article.

  • "exiled to Plate Island"; "deposed imperial family was exiled to the Princes' Islands"; "buried alongside him in a church on Plate Island" - The intro mentions he was exiled to Plate Island. The body mentions the family was exiled to the Princes' Islands (implying multiple islands???) and then that he was buried on Plate.

*"Plate Island" - Is it Plati or Plate? Also please mention that it was one of the Princes' Islands and its location in the Sea of Marmara. Maybe that it will help with the concern above? *"of the Dodekanesos" What is that? *"His maternal grandfather, Nikephoros Ι, was a staunch supporter of Irene and would soon rise to become her General Logothete (finance minister), eventually to depose her in October 802." - Please rewrite. It seems to flow badly and is a run-on sentence. *"Charlemagne hesitated to agree to such a match." - Why? *"like his brother Nicetas" - Can you mention his brother became Ignatios of Constantinople *"in a church on Plate Island" - Can you name this church? And list it in the infobox as burial_place. *"He died five years" - Any detail on how he died?KAVEBEAR (talk) 05:48, 30 July 2018 (UTC) *On Prokopia's article it states: "His date of death was recorded by Theophanes Continuatus." - Can you include something like KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:39, 20 August 2018 (UTC)that here. [reply]

That is it for now. I will read more into it once you have address these points. KAVEBEAR (talk) 05:49, 30 July 2018 (UTC) [reply]

Hi KAVEBEAR, not forgotten, but priority is with the Komnenos article right now. Probably will get around to this onw over the weekend. Constantine ✍ 07:49, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
