[edit] Good Article nomination has failed

The Good article nomination for Aymer de Valence, 2nd Earl of Pembroke has failed, for the following reason:

It looks good but the lead section needs to summarise the article's content. At the moment it's too short. See WP:LEAD. Worldtraveller 13:21, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA nomination

I fixed a small spelling error,but I have one concern the references to king should not the k be capatilized such that the word appears as King Gnangarra 11:54, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I checked out Featured Article Henry VIII of England in this the use of King whether it refers to him is predecessor or Frenh King they are all Capatilized. Gnangarra 12:02, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style: "Titles such as...king...start with a capital letter when used as a title (followed by a name)...When used generically, they should be in lower case...". There was only one case of this in the article; King John, and I've fixed that (King John is normally styled as such because he has no numeral, and 'John' could cause confusion. With the others - Henry III, Edward I, Edward II - 'King' is redundant.)

I think this is a minor concern though, and shouldn't affect the nomination. Eixo 12:48, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA Promotion

Congratulations to all the editors of this article Gnangarra 12:51, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! Oh, and Henry VIII of England wasn't quite consistant with the rule, so I fixed that. Eixo 12:57, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

sorry didnt mean to create more work Gnangarra 13:27, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem, just goes to show that even featured articles aren't always perfect... Eixo 18:45, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
