First of all, a mathematical error: 14/18*100% is 77.77777777...%, this rounds to 77.78%, not 77.77%.

A spot check found a little bit of close paraphrasing:

Source Article
Tayler's painting was finished towards the end of the 1907 season, by which time 192 engravings had been pre-ordered - providing more than enough income to pay all the artist's fees before Kent had even taken delivery of the original.
Tayler finished the painting in 1907. By that time, 192 engravings of the painting had been pre-ordered, which ensured that Tayler's fees were covered.

That's a bit problematic, though it's borderline, not definitely across the line. Still, a copyedit to reduce that would help a lot. I should probably do a full source check, though, given that, but I'll wait until you give the all-clear. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:24, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Adam Cuerden: I've changed the wording and fixed the percentages. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 22:01, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I've done some spot checks and failed to find any more close paraphrasing. I'm quite happy to promote this. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:21, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Promoted.

There is a bit more information in the sources, by the way, so it might be good to expand this a bit more before FA. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:23, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
