John Neville, 1st Marquess of Montagu edit
- ... that before his death at the Battle of Barnet in 1471, John Neville was reported to be in the thick of the fighting and "cutting off arms and heads like a hero of romance"? Santuiste, D., Edward IV and the Wars of the Roses (Barnsley (repr.) 2011), 120.

the article is more than long enough and well sourced. The hook is source. Is quite interesting but I would suggest to make it shorter, like ALT1: "that before his death at the Battle of Barnet in 1471, John Neville was "cutting off arms and heads like a hero of romance"?" but that is just my two cents. Even longer the hook is inside the limit of 200. Elisa.rolle (talk) 22:31, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
