  • Support, a great article on an interesting ceremony. Lisiate 02:08, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

  • Consider this a support if you add a section about recent coronations.[[User:Avala|Avala|]] 20:27, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • What is the section supposed to include? The dates are already indicated in a link. The ceremony does not really change from coronation to coronation, except that numerous extremely obscure changes are made: e.g. at Elizabeth II's coronation, the Lord of the Manor of Worksop, who has the hereditary right to carry the Queen's glove, did not participate. -- Emsworth 21:15, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Support. Great if you're into that sort of thing. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 15:39, 2004 Jul 22 (UTC)
  • Object. It does need to mention the cultural impact of the most recent coronation, particularly the effect it had on television. 20 million UK people watched it, which in 1953 was astounding, and obviously far more than previous coronations. Morwen - Talk 20:36, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • I've added a paragraph; is more necessary? -- Emsworth 03:33, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
      • I consider that adequate. Morwen - Talk 17:28, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
