Hi! I will be reviewing this. Adding my comments shortly. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 05:20, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

around 900, Add "AD"
- Done. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Citations generally do not occur in the lead. All facts of the lead are mentioned in the main text and the citations occur only there.
- I would like to avoid any copyright issue: "fictitious person" is a verbatim citation from a publication. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
occupied his duchy What does this mean?
- Text modified. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can spear points inhumation graves be linked or explained?
- Wikilinks added. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Duplinks: Mureș River, Carpathian Basin, Bulgars, Moravia, Carolingian Empire, Bulgaria, Florin Curta
- Delinked. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Written sources prove Is "prove" not a bit too strong? Perhaps "imply" or "show"? which also proves that he identified Glad's duchy with the territory that is now known as Banat in the next section is similar.
- Texts modified. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Is Franks linked anywhere? It should be linked
- Wikilink added. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The conquest of Banat

Glad and his large army waited them You mean "awaited" them?
- Text modified (actually, I do not know what is the better version). Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Glad in modern historiography

only mentioned in the Gesta Hungarorum "mentioned only in the..." looks better
- Text modified. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Vlad Georgescu" is a duplink.
- Delinked. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
anachronism may be linked.
- Wikilink added. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Does the image have anything to do with this section? Would look better in "Banat on the eve of the Hungarian Conquest".
- I think the image should remain here: it is an old map, representing late 19th-century scholarship. Borsoka (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your review. I fixed the above problems (I hope). Borsoka (talk) 15:52, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Borsoka Please wait for a few minutes so that I can point out all the issues. I guess I won't be able to come for a day or two, so possibly we could complete this review today itself! Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 16:00, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
