I will begin this review shortly. – Quadell (talk) 17:47, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking this on.--  SabreBD  (talk) 18:28, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

This is a very strong candidate. It is well organized, well written, and well sourced. I have a few suggestions below.


 * You mention "the Clyde-Forth line", but don't explain. What is this line?
 * The two major rivers that divide the Lowlands. Unfortunately Wikipedia does not have something obvious to link to, so I have linked both rivers.--  SabreBD  (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2013 (UTC)


 * I think there's an error in "with a characteristic outer wall within which a circle of stone piers".
 * ✅--  SabreBD  (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I reworded further. Feel free to revert if you don't like it. – Quadell (talk) 13:07, 3 November 2013 (UTC)


 * You link Firth of Clyde, but not Firth of Forth. Was that intentional? You should link to Carpow Roman Fort and Cramond Roman Fort, rather than just Cramond. You should also probably link Bo'ness and perhaps Kinneil (though I'm less sure of that one).
 * ✅--  SabreBD  (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2013 (UTC)


 * The last sentence of the article says (among other things) that Hadrian's Wall "collapsed in the fifth century". But that isn't in the source, and I can't find that explicitly claimed in the Hadrian's Wall article.
 * It was authority that collapsed, not the wall. Hopefully that is clear now.--  SabreBD  (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah! That makes sense. Clear now. – Quadell (talk) 13:07, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

I'll put this nomination on hold, and if these issues are resolved in a reasonable amount of time, I'll be happy to promote the article. – Quadell (talk) 21:02, 31 October 2013 (UTC)


 * This article passes all our GA criteria with those proverbial flying colors. I'm delighted to promote it. – Quadell (talk) 13:07, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
