[edit] Old comments

Well written and referenced. A couple of things:

• The article could benefit from more pictures, in particular maps that show the location of the kingdoms mentioned. Ideally make, or request one, alternatively find one that is relevant.
• It would be better to split 'Notes and references' up into two sections. This will provide a handy bibliography for further reading, and furthermore, books can be quoted in short form in the notes.

Good luck! Eixo 22:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Brilliant! I still prefer the map further down - for layout, if nothing else. Congratulations! Eixo 23:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA Sweeps

This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. Although is article is very well written, it could be improved by someone tidying the later additions (two sentances) which appear to be tacked onto the end. All references should come only after punctuation and I have removed a (see below) myself as it is a unencyclopedic. The article history has been updated to reflect this review.

Hmm... Didn't Oswine succeed Oswald in one of the kingdoms, not Oswiu? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.88.209.51 (talk) 20:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
