Talk:Richard of Eastwell

Untitled

The 16th century parish registry entry with the margin symbol for aristocracy clearly show this not to be a hoax. Though there is speculation on this topic, it is notable because if the interest in this and related topics. Waynercook (talk) 09:09, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

As far as I can see, there is no evidence that this person ever existed, other than one obscure document published around 1729, which may well have been a hoax. I question the notability of this article. PatGallacher (talk) 17:43, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

COI edit request

In the section titled 'In Fiction' can you please replace:

'The King's Son is a novel placed in time from just prior to the Battle of Bosworth, through the early Yorkist rebellions against Henry VII, to the Battle of Stoke in 1487. The foreword is written by historian, author and chair of the Richard III Society, Matthew Lewis.'

with the following:

'The King's Son (2022) is a novel by Darren Harris which tells Richard of Eastwell's story from just prior to the Battle of Bosworth, through the early Yorkist rebellions against Henry VII, to the Battle of Stoke in 1487. The foreword is written by historian, author, and chair of the Richard III Society, Matthew Lewis.'

The attached reference ⁽⁷⁾ remains the same i.e. 'Harris, Darren (2022). The King's Son (2nd ed.). Arcanum Press. ISBN 978-1-3999-3821-1.'

I have declared a COI as the author on my user page.

Thank you. Mollwell (talk) 14:02, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

You need to explain why this novel, by a non-notable author, is significant enough to be mentioned in the article. At most, you'll get a mention of the fact that it exists, not a summary of the plot. If you want to demonstrate that it's of any importance here, you need to add a third-party reference. I recommend you do a bit of homework - read the guidelines and look things up before trying to make or request edits. Deb (talk) 08:59, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
