[edit] Comments for Improvement

I think it's an interesting and well written article, but I'm missing an exploration of the political background: why was it important for the crown to control the use of arms and the claims of gentility? Also it could benefit from a list of literature in addition to the notes, and perhaps also a picture, for instance the one that's on Garter Principal King of Arms? Eixo 22:44, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

For the following reasons :

Lacking in references.
~~Too many red links.~~ Done
There is some evidence ... and what are they? Done
Please rephrase this line The process did not begin in earnest, though, until the sixteenth century. Done
~~Needs at least a picture.~~ Done
Give more details about the cease to use arms if used illegally and give examples if any are availables.
~~In what are the Scottish visitations different from the English ones.~~ Done

How many references would be needed to make this a good article? For the length of the article, the inline citations seem reasonable.--dave-- 03:26, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
