1. Is it reasonably well written?

   A. Prose quality:

• Please do expand the lead slightly (two full paragraphs would be an appropriate length).

Done. --Hel-hama (talk) 19:36, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

• "The form of the name Sigeberht supports" - unclear. Why?

Hopefully this is clearer - I've made a few changes. --Hel-hama (talk) 20:08, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

• "After 633 the Northumbrian situation was stabilised under Oswald of Northumbria, and East Anglia shared with Northumbria the benefits of the Irish missions of Fursey and Aidan." Please elaborate.

1. B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:

• For in-text citations, the format is more typically like this:

Lastname (year), p. X

I wish to retain the style I have used already, as eminent Wikipedeans such as Ealdgyth use a very similar style to the one I have used in the article and I have modelled my editing on them up to now. Happy to change if you insist! --Hel-hama (talk) 20:59, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Fair enough. :) No need to change it. Lemurbaby (talk) 22:55, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

for multi-page ranges in in-text citations, instead use n-dashes: Lastname (year), pp. X–XX

fixed. --Hel-hama (talk) 20:59, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

• For all number ranges (pages or years etc) use n-dashes: X–XX

fixed. --Hel-hama (talk) 20:52, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

1. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?

   A. References to sources:

• Please replace "Citations needed" tags with citations.

Done, relevant sentence was altered so as to fit in with the citation used, but was still about the cooperation between the 2 Churches. --Hel-hama (talk) 17:59, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

1. B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:

   C. No original research:

2. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. Major aspects:

   B. Focused:

3. Is it neutral?

   Fair representation without bias:

• "East Anglia lapsed into paganism" - this is not entirely neutral. How about "reverted"?

Fixed. --Hel-hama (talk) 17:22, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

1. Is it stable?

   No edit wars, etc:

2. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?

   A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:

   B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions: {{GAList/checkyes

3. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:
