Arnold of Nijmegen

... that Arnold of Nijmegen's stained glass windows (pictured) in Tournai Cathedral show Queen Fredegund's plot to have her husband's rival assassinated?

I have reviewed the article Ingrid Chua-Go Nominated 21 February. (Don't know how to paste the right link here) Amadajm

Article - created new on 13 March, so new enough; 2901 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig/duplication detector; un-assessed, so not a stub.

Hook - within length criteria at 149 characters; correctly formatted; AGF on ref BUT it needs to be moved to position immediately beside the middle sentence of 'Early works' section; and it is interesting.

QPQ done; image is Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported.

The hook mentions Queen Fredegund but she is not directly mentioned in the article? The article also refers to KIng Siegebert with no interwiki link - I think this is Sigebert 1? Also is King Chilperic this one? SagaciousPhil - Chat 08:58, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Whoops, almost forgot - there is a DAB link for Noviomagnus. SagaciousPhil - Chat 09:06, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Fixed. That was very slack of me not to link the main players in the drama. Amandajm (talk) 10:32, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Great - thanks for such a quick response! Hopefully you are still online and can add the ref so it is immediately beside the second sentence? Then I can sign it off... SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:38, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

I have expanded the section on the narrative in the windows. I was a bit draw to having a DYK that says there are four windows depicting the collection of taxes...... which is remarkable in itself, but boring compared with regicide. Fixed ref as well. Amandajm (talk) 10:50, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for responding so promptly! Everything now looks to be in place and checks out. SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:55, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
