GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   The line "To his credit is his attempt to free the see of Canterbury from debt and that, with all his faults, he is said to have been pauperum amator" seems to be taken from G.M. Bevan's Portraits of the Archbishops of Canterbury (1908).[1] Nothing wrong with that, as it's Public Domain, but I think it would be better to either rewrite it or at least cite the original source.

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:

   Generally a very good article. I did some copyediting, for your approval. Looking forward to promoting it! Lampman (talk) 13:01, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

PS: By the way, I see from the article history that that sentence was there before you started working on the article. Lampman (talk) 13:09, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Changed that offending sentence to "He made strenuous efforts to free his office from debt, as he had inherited a see that was in debt over 22,000 marks, but managed to clear the debt before his death.", which I double checked with the cite on the end (Moorman's Church Life). Anything else that needs fixing? (I didn't ever like that original sentence, struck me as a bit OR ish. Never realised Bevan's Lives were online, I'll make sure to compare/remove any other ABC articles that use it. I already "cleanup" any 1911 or CE ones I find... time to add Bevan.)
