Llywelyn the Great
Self-nomination. I think that this article meets the criteria for a featured article. It has undergone a Peer Review and the suggestions made there have been incorporated. I have also had it copyedited. Rhion 21:10, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Quite a nice article IMO! I have one minor organizational issue (with the section titled issue) that I'll go fix right now. Staxringold talkcontribs 21:37, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support. Well written, with a wide variety of references. Good work! -- Underneath-it-All 21:55, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support - a good example of an article on which several knowledgeable people have cooperated over a long period. Deb 17:37, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Image:Gwynedd Arms.PNG The line on the lower right corner looks a bit strange. Can you please change it? Making the background transparent would also be good. WP 05:20, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I have adjusted the line on the lower right - thanks for pointing it out. Making the background transparent at this stage seems to be beyond the capacity of the rather elderly version of MS Paint I have.Rhion 06:28, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Support Easily covers a lot of the subject and fully deserves FA status --Skully Collins 07:12, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Support with comments from a slightly involved editor. I participated in the peer review for the article, and was impressed by what an engaging and perspicuous treatment Rhion had given.  I believe FA requirements for documentation, quality of prose, lede, images and captions have been met.  I would suggest that the sections on "Historical assessment" and "Children" either be expanded or incorporated into some other section of the article.  Both of these sections feel too short as they stand, consisting only of a couple of sentences and a quotation or table.  The tables might be profitably converted to prose, along the lines of "Llewelyn was survived by nine children, three legitimate and six illegimate.  Elen ferch Llewelyn (c.1207-1253), his oldest legitimate daughter, first married John de Scotia," etc.  You should also rename the "Llewelyn in literature" section to something like "Cultural allusions." It's not just literature, since you include tourist attractions and computer games, and the MOS says you shouldn't have the article's title ("Llewelyn") appear in any of the section headers.

 * Done. I have added a rather different assessment by another historian to expand that section, and converted the "Children" section to paragraphs. I'll check again for typos in the new sections once I find where I've put my spectacles. Rhion 20:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
