I am nominating this for featured article status. This is my first attempt at a FA, so I expect there will be tweaks I need to make!— S Marshall Talk/ Cont 18:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC) reply

File:SChurchillDuchsMarl_BestLo.jpg could do with a better caption, perhaps along the lines of Sarah_Churchill,_Duchess_of_Marlborough#Assessment, otherwise FAc3 is fine Fasach Nua ( talk) 21:34, 12 May 2010 (UTC) reply

Needs a broad-scale overhaul, sorry. hamiltonstone ( talk) 03:35, 21 May 2010 (UTC) reply
Hamiltonstone's critique complains when I introduce simple facts and leave it there, but also complains when I give context that isn't specifically about Hertfordshire.
I do agree that paragraphs are unfocused. If I had my way, this article would contain one topic per paragraph and one paragraph per topic. There is a feeling among other editors that this makes my paragraphs "too short", a point which I feel is ridiculous but on Wikipedia one submits to the consensus. Thus others, and I, have gone through it stitching totally unrelated subjects together into the same paragraph.
Yes, the sources explicitly rule out the possibility that Hertfordshire as an administrative or governmental unit could have existed. Partly in Essex, partly in Mercia, with a dividing line along Watling Street and the River Lea. There's no evidence that the word was used as a geographical term, and while we can't explicitly rule that out, it's highly unlikely. Hertfordshire's geographically disparate and there's no feature or aspect that unites it.
Generally, my response to Hamiltonstone is, give me specific criticisms and I'll address them.— S Marshall T/ C 08:11, 21 May 2010 (UTC) reply
