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).
