Hello. I will have the review shortly. Thank you. — The Most Comfortable Chair 05:49, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Lead

 * Text only character size of the article is "7631", as of this edit. — The lead should be condensed into two paragraphs per MOS:LEADLENGTH.
 * Very well.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Overview

 * "The Victorian Age: Vampire rulebook does not contain complete rules, and as such the game requires another rulebook from the series, such as Vampire: The Masquerade Revised Edition or Dark Ages: Vampire, to be played." — "to be played" hangs out a little awkwardly at the end. Consider removing it or writing it earlier, such as → "The Victorian Age: Vampire rulebook does not contain complete rules, and as such the game requires another rulebook from the series to be played, such as Vampire: The Masquerade Revised Edition or Dark Ages: Vampire."
 * Cheers, this subtle change does make a big difference.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * "While the series until then had largely been written from an American perspective," → "While the series had largely been written from an American perspective until then," — Reads a bit more smoothly.
 * Done.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * "form of 2003's Kindred of the Ebony Kingdom." → "form of Kindred of the Ebony Kingdom in 2003." — To make it sound more formal.
 * Done.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * "social reform" — If there are any particular issues it focuses on, mention that instead.
 * The source only says "social reform - both violent and diplomatic". I have incorporated this bit, but it doesn't mention specific issues.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * "supported it with two supplements." — Could their contents be mentioned briefly?
 * They are mentioned in the table just below this paragraph - I feel it would be a little much to have it repeated that soon.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Related media

 * "A trilogy of novelizations was written by Philippe Boulle, consisting of 2002's A Morbid Initiation and 2003's The Madness of Priests and The Wounded King." → "A trilogy of novelizations was written by Philippe Boulle, consisting of A Morbid Initiation (2002), The Madness of Priests and The Wounded King (2003)." or "A trilogy of novelizations was written by Philippe Boulle, consisting of A Morbid Initiation in 2002, and The Madness of Priests and The Wounded King in 2003."
 * Done.--AlexandraIDV 23:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

That should be all for now. It is compact and written well, and it should pass. Thank you. — The Most Comfortable Chair 18:38, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the review! I have implemented your suggestions, with one exception, which I left a comment for above.--AlexandraIDV 23:29, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
