 * ... that Gouffier of Lastours tried to bring home a lion after the First Crusade?


 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article created on 27 April; at 5229 characters (according to DYKcheck), it is well above DYK minimums. Text appears to be NPOV. All paragraphs are sourced. Sources accepted in good faith, as hardcopy sourcing is given for primarily French sources; as these are French and the text is English, paraphrasing would not seem to be an issue. However, the most frequently cited source, Arbellot, is available (in the original French) as a Google book: Les chevaliers limousins à la première croisade, 1069-1102, by Arbellot (François, abbé). Hook is well under maximum length, hook fact is cited and appears, assuming my highly imperfect French is up to the task, to be on the referenced page of the book. I strongly suggest that online links be added in the reference citations to any sources that do exist. I have attempted to do so with the Arbellot. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:22, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I didn't know it was on Google Books (although apparently with a typo in the title). It's also on archive.org, which is what I was using. For the others I was using hard copies. The Sweetenham-Paterson book is on Google Books, but only as a preview. Adam Bishop (talk) 06:43, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
