The 16 Wis is ok for a paladin, but I wouldn't stick more than a 14 there myself since that's as much as you need to get the most spells.  It does help with Will saves, but paladin's already have decent will saves to begin with.  The extra +1 to spell DCs is nice, but I'd still want that +1 somewhere else.But 10 Str is a killer.  Paladins are often used as melee fighters, 10 Str makes him suck at it.  His attack bonuses are going to suck.  You got a flat 0 with melee attacks, and a -1 with ranged attacks.  The fact that he's using full plate and a large steel shield encumber him a lot, since he's going to have a low carrying capacity as well (and usually meleers tend to make the best mules with their high Str scores).  I would definitely not want to play this character.</blockquote>
