Isaac Komnenos (son of Alexios I)[edit]

Instructions for nominators and reviewers

Nominator(s): Cplakidas (talk)

Isaac was a colourful character: a younger prince who wanted to be emperor, but was always thwarted, forcing him into exile and wanderings across the Middle East. He passed on his ambition to his son, Andronikos I Komnenos, with fatal consequences for the Komnenian dynasty. The article was rewritten, practically from scratch, in 2018, and passed GA shortly after. I think it is as comprehensive as it can be, and would like to eventually nominate it for FA as well.

@WP:MILHIST coordinators: As this does not seem to attract much interest—admittedly its 'military' content is sparse—I would like to withdraw its nomination. Constantine ✍ 17:11, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Gog the Mild (talk) 17:22, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
