re:
Should it be "owed", or "owned"? The second case could work, since all land was owned by the king, but it's an awkward phrasing in that case. Or maybe it's a US/UK thing? Just checking. Green Cardamom ( talk) 18:43, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

This is an excellent article. It's a pity however, that Ludlow Castle, to which the page links, lacks so much pertinent information. -- Jeanne Boleyn ( talk) 18:35, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
Pain's paternal grandfather's influence isn't clear to a modern unskilled in understanding feudal English economics; this could be clarified. Chamberlainship as a substantive rather than body servant post needs half a phrase of explanation when discussing Map, for the non-initiate. The militarised nature of the relationship between the English Crown and Welsh needs to be made clearer, earlier, to set a context for the non-specialist. If there is a free map of the period, wherein the sites of Pain's successes and possessions can be indicated, particularly in the context of Normandy-England-Wales, that would undoubtedly enhance the article.

Ludlow Castle, and the man who controlled it, had military significance. Any objections to tagging this for Milhist? - Dank ( push to talk) 18:37, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
