Looks like an interesting topic. Review to follow. J Milburn (talk) 16:38, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Second part - Runic alphabet is linked in the template, did you mean more than this? Hel-hama (talk) 06:33, 6 February 2013 (UTC) Done. Hel-hama (talk) 19:12, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I meant it may be worth linking to our article on Wynn, the specific rune you mention. J Milburn (talk) 14:34, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A strong article. Technical in places, but that's obviously unavoidable for a topic like this. I'll hopefully have a delve into some sources at some point too. J Milburn (talk) 17:07, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of follow-up points-

  • "A third source is a regnal list in the Chronicon ex chronicis, which placed Beonna after Ælfwald and before Æthelred, states that "Regnante autem Merciorum rege Offa, Beonna regnavit in East-Anglia, et post illum Æthelredus" ('During the reign of Offa, king of the Mercians, Beonna reigned in East-Anglia, and after him Æthelred ...')." This doesn't make sense. Sorted out. Hel-hama (talk) 18:16, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The coins made after Werferth are by Efe" How about something like "Produced later than Werferth's coins are those by Efe"? Done. Hel-hama (talk) 18:16, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Once these are fixed, I'll be happy to promote. J Milburn (talk) 20:45, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And I've promoted the article- great work! J Milburn (talk) 18:53, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
