This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
Any of these? The current title is awkward, like journalese. Srnec (talk) 23:53, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"Crusader raids on the Red Sea" sounds good, it would also match the Crusader invasions of Egypt article. By the way, Bernard Hamilton devotes several pages to this in The Leper King and his Heirs - it's probably a more complicated topic than "rogue Reynald does something ridiculous", which is very Runciman.

"Crusader raids on the Red Sea" is a suitable title. I think "raid" is a more apt descriptor than 'expedition". --Marcusaurelius161 (talk) 01:47, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have some more info from Hamilton, but I can't seem to find my copy of the book, and using Google and Amazon I can see all the relevant pages except page 184...I'll have to wait until I can read that page too.
By the way, this would be a great nomination for WP:DYK! Adam Bishop (talk) 13:24, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
