  • The date is fine. However, the article falls quite short of the minimum length requirements. In addition, it needs more references. Anne (talk) 15:30, 25 October 2012 (UTC) I found a book to get you started. Thank you for submitting your article and DYK nomination. Anne (talk) 15:38, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your answer. I read that book but it doesn't contain much more on him and it's been quite hard for me to find information about him. Iowafromiowa (talk) 15:50, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

  • O.K. That happens occasionally. I have two suggestions for you to increase the length of your article. 1) Use a standard format lead which is uncited and is a summary of your article. 2) Write about the world revolving about him. Specifically, his family looks interesting and I think you should develop that section. Also, I'd develop the military section, including more about the siege, for example. If you still have trouble after that, I can do some more research for you. Anne (talk) 17:39, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
  • With regard to what we've discussed, I've started with an uncited lead. I liked your original, and transferred the information to the main text of the article. Anne (talk) 21:26, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
  • I updated the two refs and added the third that I mentioned. Anne (talk) 21:53, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
  • I've added some text. With the third ref, you can definitely expand the text on Hugh and his brother Alexander. Anne (talk) 23:10, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
  • Added text and ref for Keble College. However, just learned of block on this account. Will check status of contributor in a few days. Anne (talk) 18:17, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
