User:Serial_Number_54129 Would you mind explaining reverting this change, or why the text is there in the first place? Do you have good reason to spell out "willingly or tricked"? I've not seen mention of that in anything I've read about this, and User:Tnorthernway is claiming the source as the bases of their edit. I'd like to understand more about this, as the current version looks like it contains opinion or assumptions. Sym24 (talk) 22:38, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The titles of several works are not in title case. Eg Burgess and three others.
Both images need a USPD tag.
Image captions: should "Melton's Register" and "Register" be in italics?
"All that is known of her life comes from a marginalia"; "Melton instructed her to return to her priory … Melton wrote" On the surface this seems a contradiction.
Suggestion only. Personally I would include Note 1 in the main text as a separate sentence at the end of the paragraph.
It seems odd that the information about Joan de Saxton is split across two paragraphs.
"the Registra of the Archbishops of York of 1305–1405" Optional: "of" three times in six words; replace the last with 'for'?
Link "Monty Python".
Note 2: "small, poor and yet close to the border with Scotland" I am not sure that "yet" adds anything.
Note 3: "The books would accompany each Archbishop on his peripatetic travels through the Archiepiscopate." Can I suggest that this either be incorporated into the main text (my preference) or given a separate note. To my eye it ties in poorly with the rest of Note 3.
"as usual poverty seemed to go hand in hand with laxity". Moreover the conditions of life set its stamp upon the character of the ladies"" One of the closing quotes is not needed.
Oh good, we do like a bit of indecency. Nice job; passing as GA. But could you just check whether the section header "Escape from the nunneryde" is a typo. Cheers. Gog the Mild (talk) 18:41, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
