Best I can do is to research sources for you to get you from start to B Class. This person is a hard find, but historians seem to always differentiate from Theodoric the Great by Thoedoric, Son of Triarus. Electrawn09:12, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, this is a good article! As a matter of fact, a very good article! Comprehensive, well-citated, with well-captioned photos. Neat and nice! Why don't you nominate it for GA? I think it will pass. And then you'll see if there's any chance for FA. Minor remarks:
The only drawback, but important one, that I can find is the lack of sources. You have only two references. I donot think for GA this is a problem (again, nobody can be sure about that!), but it would be better if you could find some more sources. I understand, of course, it is difficult. So, if you don't find additional sources and you get criticized for that, just explain that additional sources are not available.
Prerequisite for this remark is the existence of additional sources and comments about him: It would be nice to have some assessments, criticisms, laudations of Theodoric Strabo's career. It's nice to enrich a biographical article with such things and not only events. But, again, are there any more sources?--Yannismarou15:18, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Not entirely certain. I seem to remember somewhere that he is a distant cousin of Theodoric the Great, but I am not entirely certain of the degree of relationship, or if the are "cousins" in the sense that they are both from the same Gothic branch (Ostrogoths)... --Jayron32.talk.contribs15:31, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
