Lengthy (41Kb) article I have just written on a medieval French knight involved in an infamous duel in 1386. Looking to take this to FA at some point in the future and would appreciate any advice on the piece. --Jackyd101 00:09, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is extremely good, reading a bit like a thriller. Only problem I can see it that it is cited a bit too heavily on Jager; re-citing some of the references to the primary sources might work better. If it were me I would give this A-class immediately. Buckshot06 17:13, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An excellent article; just a few minor things to fix:

  • Any chance we could get an infobox here? I don't see any particular layout reasons for avoiding one, given the image positioning.
  • Having single sub-sections strikes me as unnecessary; it would probably be neater to just combine the section headings than to break things apart that way.
  • The image sizes should be standardized a bit more; as it is, they're all over the place.
  • The citation form is not one I'm familiar with, and not one common among scholarly writing, I suspect. Pretty much all forms place the page number after the author/title/whatever else is being used to identify the work.
  • Repeating the source in-text at the end of the Britannica quote seems unnecessary, given that it's explicitly note beforehand.

Keep up the great work! Kirill 03:01, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
