Royroydeb, thank you for your review. Based on your remarks, I made significant changes in the text. Please find my comments below. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • "was King of Hungary and Croatia from 1308." - it should be was the king of Hungary and Croatia from 1308 to ?
  • In the lead only the lineage of paternal grandmother is mentioned. Any reason? Why not of other grandparents?
    • I modified the lead and I hope it clarified the above issue. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • "inherited the claim of his father" - do you want to mean, that he was a contender to succeed his father as the king?
    • I modified the lead. I hope the new text is clearer. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • "He was the only son" - A pronoun is not used at the beginning of a paragraph.
  • "was the firstborn son" - what do you mean by firstborn son?
  • Did the house became "extinct" because it did not have any descendants or was just a claim of Mary?
    • I modified the text. I hope the new text is clearer. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • The article says Andrew III was crowned the king in 1290, but Mary gave her claim to the throne in favour of his son in 1292. How does it possible?
    • I modified the text. I hope the new text is clearer. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • What authority did the Pope had to decide about the throne?
    • Sorry, I do not understand your above question. Borsoka (talk) 14:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

    • I modified the text, adding further information. Borsoka (talk) 05:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Link Neapolitan
  • They disembarked in Split - it should be from Split
    • Modified (... landed at Split ...). Borsoka (talk) 05:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • In the last sentence you want to mean the coronation should have taken place in that city with that crown? It should be reworded
  • The last sentence of the second paragraph should also be reworded.
  • Why he renounced the crown for Otto III should be explained
    • I modified the text, adding further information. Borsoka (talk) 05:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Why was Otto unable to strengthen his position in Hungary?
    • I modified the text, adding further information. Borsoka (talk) 05:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Link Church of our Lady and Buda
    • Thank you for your review. Links added. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • the powerful lord. - Remove powerful
    • Removed the text "against the powerful lord" text. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • now Timișoara in - replace now with present day
  • new voivode - link voivode
    • I modified: voivode of Transylvania (which is already linked under the same subtitle). Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Charles had taken "full possession" - why it is in quotes?
    • It is a quote from his charters. I modified the text. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Temesvár to Visegrád - link them. Also mention where they are presently located.
    • Both towns were mentioned in previous sections. I think we should not link them again (as per WP:OVERLINK). Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • link Carpathian mountains
  • Hungarian castles, along with the domains attached - what does domains mean?
  • to rule "with the plenitude of power" - why is it in quotes?
    • Because it is quote from one of his charters. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • promoting "a daughter to a son" - the question over quotation
    • I changed: "promoting a daughter to a son". I think nowadays we would not describe the act as a "promotion". Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • army on the Leitha River. - I think on the banks of Leitha river

  • seizing the fortress of Severin - link Severin
  • the new King of Poland, Casimir III - link Casimir III.
  • (the so-called chamber's profit) - Why have you written so called?
  • He died in Visegrád - in brackets write present day country
    • Visegrád is mentioned in previous chapters of the article. Since Charles was king of Hungary, the information that Visegrád is in Hungary cannot be surprising. :) Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • was buried in the Székesfehérvár Basilica - mention present day country

  • has been recently married to - it should be "has recently married"
  • to "Ruthenia" - again, why is it in quotes?
    • It is a quote from a charter and "Ruthenia" is a medieval term. Text modified. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • His mother was a daughter of Gurke Csák. He was elected Bishop of Győr in 1336. - you want to mean that Csak was elected as the bishop or Charles? Rewording must be done.
  • the "restoration of the ancient good conditions" - You can instead write, According to Kontler Charles declared that his aim...
    • Sorry, I do not understand your above suggestion: it is not Kontler's POV, but a fact. Borsoka (talk) 12:06, 29 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
