Sorry,  you hold what qualification in medieval history to make this  
comment?  What do you think the so-called "feudal system" was about  if 
not the holding of land, which made up most of the economy of Europe  
from say 600 to at least 1600? >>

Not the point.
This article is not about the feudal system, not about an example of a  
person with a hundred plots of land.  It's about one person, their  life.  Not 
their land holdings.
 
By the way.  I didn't "target a constructive editor".  I did not  look, and 
don't make it a habit to look at *who* edited an article.  It's a  waste of 
time.  The article is the thing, not the people behind it.
 
This article is poor.  Whether it's a good example of the feudal  system or 
not (and it's not) isn't relevant to whether it's a good example of a  
stubby biography (which it's not).
