Reviewing upon request. Will begin today or tomorrow. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 16:45, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

@Tim O'Doherty Thanks for taking up the review. I hope this is successful and that you are doing well in real life. Looking forward to the coming days and your subsequent comments. Regards MSincccc (talk) 17:25, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Since the article's so short there isn't much need for a table...

Prose:

• We have "King Charles III" and "Elizabeth II" - one style should be used consistently
• her grandmother Diana, Princess of Wales - we have just "Charles" in the same sentence: "Diana" alone'll do.
• On 4 May, ..., etc - commas aren't needed
• She joined her brother Prince George - I'd put "older brother" here
• On 8 September 2022, Charlotte's paternal great-grandmother Elizabeth II died - again with the comma, but you've told us who her great-grandmother is already: "Elizabeth" or "the Queen" will be fine.
• Introduce Brand Finance
• Due to the implementation of the Perth Agreement -> "Because of the implementation of the Perth Agreement"

Sources:

• Don't use the Evening Standard or Fox News please - replace with something else
• Some refs have quotes and others don't - I'd standardise that
• Some refs have publisher locations (eg ref 5's "London") - all or nothing again
• Inconsistencies between Telegraph refs (eg refs 6 and 21): differences between the name, italicisation, subscription parameter, etc. Standardise.
• You have both "'BBC News" and "BBC": pick one
• Sources I spotchecked: 1, 2, 8, 11, 14, 21 and 23 are generally fine, although 11 is Fox News and doesn't support that she was known as "Charlotte Cambridge"
• Earwig clocks in at 8.3 per cent, which is fine

Images...

are fine.

Good article overall. Some issues need fixing, but nothing too serious. Pinging MSincccc. Cheers, Tim O'Doherty (talk) 19:39, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

On 8 September 2022,... This requires a comma as it is a full date rather than just the year or the month followed by the year. Removed publisher locations and also retaining "BBC News" not "BBC" as the former is more common. Regards MSincccc (talk) 02:13, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Sorry but I could not find suitable sources on the same event to replace Evening Standard. Would you please help me? Regards. MSincccc (talk) 02:25, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

@Tim O'Doherty Would you please help me with replacing the Fox News and Evening Standard refs? I could not find any alternatives on Google. Regards MSincccc (talk) 13:37, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, I misremembered here: Fox and the Standard seem to be permissible per WP:RSPS (just about). Just a couple of prose things left then. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 13:44, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

More specifically for prose: bullet points 4, 6 and 7. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 13:48, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Issues 6 and 7 have also been resolved. Then only point 4 left. Regards MSincccc (talk) 13:50, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

@Tim O'Doherty What do you mean by "Introduce Brand Finance"? MSincccc (talk) 13:51, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Describe what it is in a few words. Is it a newspaper, organisation, think tank, company, etc. Introduce it briefly to the reader. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 13:54, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

The valuation is made by Reader's Digest not Brand Finance. The latter does not appear in prose. Regards MSincccc (talk) 14:27, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

@Tim O'Doherty Don't you think that beginning a sentence with "Because" does not seem that good. It's taught in British English. Regards MSincccc (talk) 13:54, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

It's better than "due to", at any rate. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 13:57, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Making the changes now but in school my teacher does not accept it when we begin a sentence with "Because" and I am studying British English like you once did in middle school. Regards MSincccc (talk) 14:24, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Given all the prose-related changes I have now made, I hope this article will be passed as GA by tomorrow. Let me know if any further changes you would like to see in a Good Article. Regards MSincccc (talk) 14:31, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
