Entertainment should be added as it was a large part of many people's lives during this time period. I have taken it upon myself to add it in. Watersoftheoasis ( talk) 20:16, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Its like that in the article, but not in the title. JONJONAUG ( Talk) 15:43, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

What is the current era called? -- Daniel C. Boyer ( Talk) 17:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Where are the notes at the bottom of the page showing sources??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.24.189.51 ( talk) 05:04, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
The information panel top right (sorry don’t know the technical term) says that the E Era was succeeeded by the Jacobean Era, and preceded by the Tudor Period. Elizabeth I was as much as a Tudor as her four predecessors, who after all were her grandfather, father, half-brother and half-sister. It makes no sense to imply that she is not a Tudor — her era is in the Tudor period. I’m not all that happy with dividing time into ‘eras’ based on whoever happens to be the monarch, but if you insist on it, it would be easier if there wasn't an attempt to have eras in a continuous flow. “Elizabethan Era” would mean quite a lot to most people with an interest in English and British history, but “Jacobean Era” much less so — “which James do you mean?” they might ask — though here it is clearly James I and VI who is being referred to, it could be James II.
I suggest not bothering with the “preceded by” and “succeeded by” information. It’s a rod for your back. Penelope Coleman ( talk) 20:53, 16 November 2017 (UTC)

Health and diet in Elizabethan England is basically a redundant stub. Elizabethan era#Social history covers the same subjects, provides more information on those subjects, and provides information of better quality. I suggest the material from the former that isn't already covered by (or contradicted in) the latter simply be added to the latter and the two articles be merged.
