[edit] Move

If he's "usually" called "Thomas of Bayeux," then shouldn't the article be called "Thomas of Bayeux" with the redirect at "Thomas I of York"? TheLimbicOne 14:21, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] GA Review

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    In the first place, you may want to consider shortening the lead because, as two paragraphs, it is quite long for an article of its size. Second, some of the prose doesn’t make sense. For example, was Sampson always Thomas’ brother, or only from 1086-1112 as is suggested by the text? Additionally, under “Serving William II” you have a string of sentences which all begin with “Thomas”: these should be rewritten. There are also a couple of other spelling and grammatical errors sprinkled throughout.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    I am placing the article on hold in the expectation that the problems mentioned above can be cleaned up. jackturner3 (talk) 15:37, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, think I addressed everything but the spelling and grammatical errors. If you could point those out? I freely admit I suck at spelling, so I'm not likely to see them without having them pointed out. And grammatical errors... I've stared at this dang thing so much I am starting to see spots! Pointers would be much appreciated. Ealdgyth | Talk 15:49, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Spelling is not a problem, and the grammer seems correct now. For that reason, I happily promote this article to GA —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jackturner3 (talkcontribs) 19:00, 30 January 2008
