Not necessary for the review, but could you add some more details, like the date, at the description of the file GeorgeBellew.jpg ?
That file was uploaded in 2006 and doesn't have any sources for its PD tag. I am not sure about copyright laws and all that, but I wonder whether it should be removed?
The terms linked here can also bee linked in the main text.
I think I've done this
Having been Somerset Herald for twenty-four years Unless we need to keep it as it is, we should state numbers greater than 10 in digits as per the MoS.
Done
proclaimed his daughter, Elizabeth II Could this be slightly tweaked so that it is fully clear who "he" is?
Noswall59 Thanks! Just a little query. Can the article tell us more about his personal life? Is there any sourced info on that? And mention when (+where) he died in the lead. 10:05, 14 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Sainsf: thanks for the additional comments. I have included some information from another herald's memoirs and some further information I have managed to glean from a book on the Order of the Garter. There may be a little more in the Garter book (pp. 142–144), but I cannot access that at the moment. As far as I am aware, there are no other printed sources about his life, which is a shame, but if I ever encounter anything else, I will make sure it goes into the article. As for the lead, I have mentioned his homes (into which he seemed to invest much of his time) and his death. I have removed the image from the article for now, and provided a link to an image which is held by the National Portrait Gallery, but under copyright limitations.

@Noswall59 and Sainsf: With regards to images: if there were doubts about File:GeorgeBellew.jpg, the file should have been nominated for deletion rather than simply removing it from this article. I've nominated it, because no source whatsoever is given for the image.
Anyone working with GA reviews as either nominators – or particularly as reviewers – should know what the copyright considerations are in a situation like this. If a free image can not be found (and can not be created – in this case because the subject is dead), then a non-free image can be used in conformity with the non-free content guidelines. There is no excuse for not using any image here. "Illustrated, if possible, by images" is one of the Good article criteria (6.), and this article fails it. A search for a free image should take place and if none is found, a non-free image used under the non-free content policy. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 12:05, 15 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
