Frederick Hamilton-Temple-Blackwood, 1st Marquess of Dufferin and Ava a.k.a Lord Dufferin[edit]

Not a self nom. I found this article during its peer review, and have made a number of suggestions and relatively minor copyedits — Worldtraveller is most definitely the hero here. By any standard, this article has undergone an extremely productive peer review — it has morphed from a non-comprehensive piece that even suffered from a few potentially copyvio passages to a comprehensive, well written and extensively researched biography of a fascinating man who lived during a compelling historical period. The size is good, it is appropriately referenced, and is accompanied by several relevant images. Although the article was previously nominated some time ago and did not then garner much support, the current article bears almost no resemblance to the previous nomination. In my opinion, this piece is an example of how peer review should work, and the result should now be recognised as an example of Wikipedia's finest. Fawcett5 22:36, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
