Brut Chronicle edit

  • ... Did you know that in medieval England, the Brut Chronicle was one of the most-copied chronicles of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries?[1]
  • New enough (transcluded late/wrong date, but nom was made day of, and all the content was there.) Long enough. No copyvio or close plagiarism detected. Neutral and cited. QPQ done and the hook is interesting and short enough. Good to go.

    @Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi and Drmies: really enjoyed reading this. A nice break from 17th century conclaves :) If you wouldn't mind a quick stylistic comment: the article seemed a slightly heavy on parenthetical comments that threw me off a bit as a reader. Not a huge issue, but the one thing that stood out to me. Anyway, great work and thanks for the interesting read. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:44, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks TonyBallioni  :) I blame Drmies for those bits, of course  ;) Cheers! — O Fortuna semper crescis, aut decrescis 15:22, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
