Wallis Simpson a.k.a. The Duchess of Windsor[edit]

The article is currently rated B class. IMO, it is fully referenced, comprehensive and well-written. What do you think? DrKiernan 08:30, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zleitzen[edit]

DrKiernan, I presume! Another strong article. Amend those blue web links in the films section and haul the article over to FAC if you think its ready. Good work.-- Zleitzen(talk) 08:55, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hello again! Amended the film section. Thanks. DrKiernan 09:30, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yannismarou[edit]

  • "She remains a controversial figure in British history." Maybe, this sentence would be better placed at the last paragraph of the lead, coming as a conclusion of the summary of her life.
  • You link some single years - this is not in accord with MoS, according to which it is recommended to link date-month-year only. I fixed some, but I think not all of them.
  • Sometimes, the article gets over-wikified. For instance, in the second paragraph of "Later life" Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon is wikilinked twice.
  • "that she was anything other than a victim of her own ambition, who lived out a great romance that became a great tragedy." I am not sure if such a comment is encyclopedic. In a biography of her it would be OK, but in a encyclopedic article, I do not know.

In general, a very nice article; I don't think it would face any serious problems in FAC.--Yannismarou 12:33, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks, amended a few more of the links to single years. DrKiernan 13:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
