[edit source]@Se7enNationArmy2024: Please spell out the problem. Srnec (talk) 21:05, 30 December 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @Srnec
- Thank you for following up. Respectfully, there is a tone in several statements that sound speculative or vague. I understand sourcing for this subject is likely limited, but there is room for improvement in how it is presented. For example:
- "sometime between 1222 and 1224"
- "he ceded some rights and lands to his uncle"
- "It was probably the lord of Boves"
- "He must have died in 1249"
- It is my understanding this type of language should be avoided or at least, reworded to reflect an encyclopedic tone.
- I mean no disrespect, of course. Se7enNationArmy2024 (talk) 21:43, 30 December 2025 (UTC)
- I dealt with two, but:
- "sometime between 1222 and 1224" is as precise as it gets (at least based on the author cited)
- "he ceded some rights and lands to his uncle". Do you really want me to specify the rights and lands? Srnec (talk) 20:09, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
