I've made several copyedits/minor formatting fixes; revert anything you don't agree with

I could easily add 'to the English', but given that the context is "held by the English in France was Gascony in the south west. But Gascony was disproportionately important: duty levied by the English Crown" are you sure that is not already clear and that that won't be a lot of "English"?
I think it's probably fine. I'll see what other reviewers say at the presumptive FAC run. Hog Farm Talk 04:40, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ah ha! Done.
Good point. The first three paper RSs I picked up all use it, and one meaning in Wiktionary is "To go to war; to make military advances", so I guess so.
Quite right. I thought it was. Got lost in summary style condensing and my clumsy copy editing. Now two mentions in "1356".
Ah, yes, I haven't said what I meant. "Plate" now specified. I have also reined in the geographical claim, although I am not sure that is necessary. "horse armour is known as barding and the use of plate armour for this was a recent innovation in Western Europe."
It is fairly standard in BritEng, at least in MilTalk. Tanks laagered (yes, as a verb) in laagers during and after WWII. Still do for all I know. I have Wiktionary linked it.
I don't know how many times I read straight past that. Thanks. Fixed.
LOL! Added.
Good spot. I have used the Library of Congress number! *rolly eyes* Fixed.
Expunged.
