This is a really good article; indeed, on first blush it looks like it might be easily eligible to be a capital-GA Good Article. The first hook is very good, although given how controversial the royal ordinal is for that particular monarch, you might want to just say "King James". Sceptre (talk) 17:11, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks very much for the review and kind words. I think it would be better to keep the English royal ordinal in order to avoid confusion with his grandson of the same name, and the English ordinal is typically used in articles discussing his reign in England.
