The Three Brothers (jewel)
Nice article - would you like to put it up for WP:DYK? I could do it if you like. Johnbod (talk) 03:55, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Absolutely, that would be wonderful - it's taken quite a while to assemble all this info, glad it can get some exposure. Thanks! -- Arcaist  contribs  • talk  07:35, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, is it possible to get references for the last bits of those paras that don't have them - eg the end of the later history? Any ideas for the hook? Johnbod (talk) 18:58, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Good suggestion - those last sentences are also based on Humphrey 2014, which I've added. For the hook, maybe this: "DYK... that The Three Brothers jewel was once owned by the the richest man in history before it became part of the English crown jewels, only to be lost to history when Charles I of England tried to pawn it?" Too long? Too complicated? -- Arcaist  contribs  • talk  19:36, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I think I figured out the nomination thing, should by on the DYK - it's my first nomination, so happy to hear any feedback! -- Arcaist  contribs  • talk  21:30, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Looks fine. Johnbod (talk) 00:01, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Hiya I thought I'd let you know I've put the article up for a peer review at Peer review/List of heists in the United Kingdom/archive1. Cheers! Mujinga (talk) 14:18, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

New section about student accommodation
Hi Arcaist, I am wondering if you could help to write a new section about student accommodation under the part "Student life". I think this information would be useful for new students.


 * Yeah, good idea - could include Pollock Halls and some other locations. Could you create a new topic on the talk page there, maybe we can get some others to pitch in too? Thanks! — Arcaist (contr —talk)  19:37, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
