@Legis: Date and length fine. I prefer the original but I can't see an inline citation for the 85 years claim. QPQ not needed as this is the nominator's fourth nomination. No close paraphrasing. I wouldn't reccommend using the picture of Lord Hardwicke as he isn't even mentioned in the hook, the one of Penn would be more appropriate. Ping me when that's done and I'll have another look.

@The C of E: Many thanks; have now made those changes. I put the hook in the intro (last sentence) plus new citation in support. --Legis (talk - contribs) 21:47, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
Hook is now sourced inline and the picture of Penn is public domain. With the rest of the review as above, this is good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 06:24, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Large unsourced sections, per WT:DYK. Vanamonde (Talk) 19:04, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
Problem solved. --evrik(talk) 03:37, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
@Evrik: there are still paragraphs with no citations at all. I'll mark them for you. Yoninah (talk) 16:12, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
@Legis: I got it down to two. --evrik(talk) 22:16, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
Thanks, I have done the last bits. --Legis (talk - contribs) 08:41, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
