5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 05:42, 1 October 2015 (UTC).
Expanded recently and enough, hook is interesting, cited reliably inline in the article, within policy, and short enough. QPQ done. Good to go. Johanna (formerly BenLinus1214)talk to me!see my work 02:36, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
I went to promote this nomination, but found issues in the third paragraph of the History section. The first two sentences are closely paraphrased from the source (especially the second), the third and fourth are unsourced and don't give a clear idea of how long this period lasted and what the Auvergne rulers did while all this was happening, and the final sentence is virtually identical to the source. These issues need to be addressed before the nomination can be promoted. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:32, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
- I have rewritten the paragraph, and I hope it now meets with your approval. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:30, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
- The issues I found in the paragraph with close paraphrasing and sourcing have been taken care of. Thank you, Cwmhiraeth. Restoring the previous approval now that this policy issue has been addressed, and adding a hyphen to the hook. (You might want to consider changing "seventeenth" to "17th" for the sake of brevity.)
