Comments: An interesting, well-written and well-researched article. Apart from some minor copyediting things I spotted, which I fixed on the spot, this was very, very close to a straight pass. I'll only ask for one addition, for clarity's sake:- please can we have a translation of cy-près? It looks like Middle French, to me.—S Marshall T/C 01:09, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Will do; I've got a citation in Cy-près doctrine in English law specifically for that. You're right, by the way; it's a Norman French abbreviation for cy pres comme possible (as close as possible). Ironholds (talk) 18:22, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Fantastic. I'm pleased to pass this article as a GA. At this point, I ought to remind you to review someone else's GAN when you can. :) Regards—S Marshall T/C 20:40, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
