  • Just noting this is listed at AfD although its looking like a quick Keep at this point. I also bolded the article title in the hook. Thingg 18:58, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
  • Article is new enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. Image is public domain. QPQ done. I formatted the references, and found one dead link which needs to be taken care of. Also, all of the references except for Christies titles the painting A Commander Being Armed For Battle.

  • A Commander Being Armed For Battle was the old title used at Althorp, but like Christie's I wonder, how do they know anyway? 1613 was an unusually peaceful point in Western Europe. I've added a redirect, but there is no need for us to follow beyond that. Dead link replaced. Johnbod (talk) 02:46, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
  • OK. All in order. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 10:57, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
