  • Support. Important dude, well written, lots of good links. I find Charles 2 more interesting, however. func(talk) 17:08, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Support with one request -- Emsworth, the "Early reign" section's a trifle long. Is it possible to break it in two? I would suggest that the latter half could have some title relating to Buckingham, who's certainly one of the chief figures of that stage of the reign, or to Charles's abuses of the legal and legislative process. Any thoughts? Jwrosenzweig 00:19, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Object - The lead section is way too short for an article this size. The lead section at James I of England has three paragraphs and that article is significantly shorter than this one, and, IMO, is about a much less important person. Three paragraphs are needed for an article this size per the guidelines at Wikipedia:lead section. Other than that, this is a great article (esp after my small additions! ;). --mav 03:01, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)
