Will take this one. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 15:35, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

• Lead and infobox;
  • You mentioned the date of death in the infobox as "after 1106", but in the prose it is mentioned as unknown, also mention the details of his death in the lead
    • Well, the main section makes clear that we don't know when he died; we know that he was alive in 1166, hence he died after 1166. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
• Section 1;
  • name instead derives from A[n]gel; why braces for "n"
    • Because both forms are attested for the spelling of this name. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Which country did the historian Suzanne belong to?
    • Why is this relevant? Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
  • What is r.?
    • "ruled/reigned". I've replaced it with a template that shows it when you hover your cursor over it. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Mention the country of the emperor
    • Well, it is clear we are talking about the Byzantine Empire here; the only other empire named in the article came about after his death. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
  • basic introductory context on the high title cause it was an important turn for the subject
    • I am afraid I don't understand what you mean. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
      • @Cplakidas: I would like to see some basic context explaining sebastohypertatos, because it is important for the subject. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 14:11, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
        • @Krishna Chaitanya Velaga: Done. Constantine ✍ 21:52, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
  • What is Synod of Blachernae? A competition, race or what?
    • Replaced with the more generic and descriptive "church council". Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
  • she is "was" last mentioned in 1136
    • Now, she is mentioned in the sources that have come down to as for the last time as being alive in 1136. It is correct. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
• Section 2;
  • Details of the children of the subject's children are out of context, remove them
    • keep the details of those who are notable, for example Alexios III Angelos etc.
      • I disagree. Some of these children were extremely important, others less so, but their careers and spouses serve to link Constantine with the wider political and dynastic world of his time. In addition, some of them are non-notable nd unlikely to have an article of their own, so the information on their family belongs here. Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
• Section 3; all good
• 5.7% confidence, violation unlikely

Hi Krishna Chaitanya Velaga and thanks for taking the time to review this article. I've tried to correct some of the points you raised, but on others I have pointed out why I disagree or could not understand what you meant. Please have a look. Also, since I assume you are unfamiliar with the subject, I'd like to ask if, apart from the narrow GA criteria, you have any comments on understandability, context, etc. Best regards, Constantine ✍ 17:39, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
