James Comyn

 * ... that a woman once threw a dead cat at James Comyn when he was cross-examining her in court? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

 * Drive-by comment: The hook doesn't make sense chronologically. Should the phrase "who later became a judge" be deleted? Yoninah (talk) 22:58, 11 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Full review here:


 * Thanks for your feedback. I've edited the hook and sourced everything in the article. I also expanded the introduction a bit. Atchom (talk) 22:22, 21 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you, it looks better now. Will be doing a full re-review in a few minutes but have some other Wikipedia tasks to get to first; just wanted to let you know that I've acknowledged your reply. :-)-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 01:06, 22 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Alright, the other important Wikipedia tasks have been done so I've taken a look at this. The improvements you've made to the article are very nice; however, there are two minor concerns I still have. First of all, I still think it would be good if you could fix the close paraphrasing issue I pointed out above. Second, the fact that Comyn won the case doesn't appear to be sourced. Besides this, the article seems DYK-ready.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 01:55, 22 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Symbol voting keep.svg The issues I pointed out have been solved and everything else seems to check out. Assuming good faith on the offline source which is being used to support most of the article's material. Thank you for your work on this article; it should be good to go.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 04:14, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
