It's good to have someone who knows what they're talking about editing King Arthur. If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask.--Cúchullain t/c 06:34, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] King Arthur
Don't worry about using your book. I looked into it, and it seems pretty well received and provides us with a lot of good information not found elsewhere. As long as you're not trying to promote yourself at the expense of the encyclopedia, there's no conflict of interest.
Keep up the excellent work. If you wish, you should join the Wikipedia:WikiProject King Arthur - it's not very active right now, but it's always good to have people who know what they're talking about on board.--Cúchullain t/c 23:33, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Featured Articles
I'd say it's getting pretty close. There's a list of the criteria here. I'd say the main things to change will be introducing some images, including a bit more on post-medieval portrayals of him, and probably making some subsections within the longer sections. The intro will probably have to be tightened a bit as well. Articles are nominated at Featured Article Candidates, they are reviewed there. Generally other editors will offer suggestions for improvement, and the nominator and others working on the article will make the necessary changes. At this stage I'd imagine they'd bring up the things I just mentioned. You may want to talk to Wrad, he's currently working to get Sir Gawain and the Green Knight featured, so he'll know more about the process than I do.--Cúchullain t/c 22:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Concepts of Arthur
Just letting you know I recently got a copy of your book. Extremely fascinating stuff. I haven't seen any other work that attempts to do what you've done. When I get done with it I'll start using it at other articles. Wikipedia's lucky to have it as a source, and you as a contributer. Cheers,--Cúchullain t/c 23:58, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Recent Arthur Family Edits
I had found this other son of Arthur and had a perfectly legitimate reference, but it was recently deleted. Is there a reason for this? I noticed you also put the site I referenced on external links and said it had "varying reliability." Is this because there is something to show this part or parts of the site in general are wrong? If so, I would like to know as I am doing a lot of research in that area and if the site is bad I don't want to rely on it too much. ---G.T.N. (talk) 14:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] King Arthur Peer review
The second peer review is getting a lot of responses. We need your help to take care of the concerns there and get this article to FA! Wrad (talk) 22:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
