Expansion...
[edit]I've gone through and given it a bit of scrub and general expansion. I've removed the longer lists, as they weren't referenced and I'm not sure they were adding a lot, and added in some more pictures and a plan of the castle. It may well need a quick scrub through in terms of copy-editing though. Hchc2009 (talk) 17:18, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
- The list of lords of Wallingford Castle has been readded. Any thoughts on its place in the article? As it stands a list of names isn't immensely helpful and as the article's been expended it's repeating much of the information already there, but perhaps it would be helpful to present the information with more detail such as dates and reasons for change over.

Separate list page..
[edit]- I've broken out the list of lords into a separate page. The MOS states that lists should not be used where they can be incorporated into regular paragraphs and discourages the repetition of material, and most of the lords are already referenced in the regular text. I've created a separate page for a list of the lords, and linked it off the main page. Hchc2009 (talk)
What sort of steward?
[edit]"The nobleman William Martel, Stephen's royal steward..." - is this a Butler, Steward (office), or Lord Steward? SilkTork *Tea time 13:29, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
- The original source said "royal steward"; I've gone for Lord Steward, the later title that descends from this period, as the best link.Hchc2009 (talk) 19:10, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
