GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


 * 1) Is it well written?
 * A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
 * "He was born during Constantine's reign, he was a porphyrogennetos" - Please rephrase, this is a run-on sentence.
 * "This also discontinued his engagement to Anna Vsevolodovna of Kiev." - Not referenced. Can you add more detail about this engagement?
 * "He was made a general, and sent to campaign against the Normans. He was killed while fighting against the Normans in 1082, near Dyrrhachium." - Can you describe the campaign and battles Konstantios took part in?
 * ✅ Added what I could. Iazyges   Consermonor   Opus meum  03:45, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

 * B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
 * 1) Is it verifiable with no original research?
 * A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
 * B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons&mdash;science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:
 * C. It contains no original research:
 * D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
 * 1) Is it broad in its coverage?
 * A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
 * B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
 * Can you expand this article more if not with details of his life at least with detail to situation surround his life and reign? You do this really well in Constantine Doukas (co-emperor) even though it seems there is more information on Konstantios' life. At the moment this article is a little too brief and small for Good Article quality.KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:30, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

 * 1) Is it neutral?
 * It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
 * 1) Is it stable?
 * It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
 * 1) Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
 * A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
 * B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass or Fail:
 * It seems Konstantios Doukas, Andronikos Doukas (co-emperor) and Constantine Doukas (co-emperor) are all related and their co-reigns crossed paths with each other. Can you mention the other two in each of these respective articles? -KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:18, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ Believe I have done all you have asked.  Iazyges   Consermonor   Opus meum  03:51, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Just two more things. 1. Can you list Buckley 2014? It doesn’t link to any of the books in the Bibliography section? 2. “In the same year, his own supporters handed him over to Nikephoros III, who sent him to live in a monastery on one of the Princes Islands in the Propontis.[7] By becoming a monk he became unable to marry,“ — Was he tonsured? Maybe making it clearer in the sentence before that he was forced to become a monk. Thanks and that’s all before I can pass this.KAVEBEAR (talk) 03:56, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Done. Iazyges   Consermonor   Opus meum  03:59, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Pass. Thanks.KAVEBEAR (talk) 04:01, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
