- ... that the Treaty of Kępno (1282) between Mestwin II and Przemysł II (pictured) conferred control over Gdańsk Pomerania to Poland, led to Przemysł becoming king, and facilitated the reunification of Poland?

No problems with the article; the article is long enough and new enough, and the sources (all print, which is even better) appear to be reliable. Good work! Unfortunately, the hook is slightly over the 200 character maximum; what if you simply chop "conferred control over Gdańsk Pomerania to Poland, led to Przemysł becoming king, and"? Saying "that the Treaty of Kępno (1282) between Mestwin II and Przemysł II (pictured) facilitated the reunification of Poland?" would be quite sufficient.

Would "... that the Treaty of Kępno (1282) between Mestwin II and Przemysł II (pictured) transferred control over Gdańsk Pomerania and facilitated the reunification of Poland?" work? That should be under 200 and also convey the gist of the treaty. Volunteer Marek 10:26, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
- I can't remember what we count and what we don't count (e.g. the ellipsis at the start, the quotation marks, the question mark at the end), but if you count everything from the first quotation mark to the second, it's just 169 characters, so this works. Hook reflects the article, so no problems with its content, either. By the way, the painting is by Jan Matejko (dead for 118 or 119 years), so there's no copyright issue. Since the article itself was already cleared,
ready to go. Nyttend (talk) 11:46, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
