 * Symbol question.svg Recent GA. Referenced and hook is also cited. No neutrality or copyright issues suspected. QPQ not needed. However, none of the suggested hook flow well. Might I suggest:
 * ALT2:... that John Beaumont, 1st Viscount Beaumont was knighted by an eight-year old king in 1429?
 * If so, I think another reviewer would need to approve that hook.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 09:18, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Need someone else to approve ALT2 hook.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 22:12, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg The hook checks out, AGF on offline source. I have made a small change to fix the grammar. I have not done a complete review of the rest of the article, because I believe KAVEBEAR has covered it. Regards, Vanamonde (talk) 09:58, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
