5x expanded by
Dumelow (
talk). Self-nominated at 09:01, 30 June 2021 (UTC).
Article has been expanded 5x so is both new and long enough. Cited hook is referenced. Article appears to be within policy. Submitter just needs to carry out their QPQ before it can be ticked off.

ISD, it looks like you only reviewed one article. Did you review both nominated articles (
130th Regiment of Foot and
Sir George Pigot, 3rd Baronet) or just one of them? (
Dumelow, it does kinda appear to be one long link instead of two; I'd recommend rewording a bit to separate them, but if you're happy with it as is, that's fine.)

Forgive me for the omission. The George Pigot article to me also seems to fit all the critera. It is a new article rather than a 5x expanded one, but it still fits all the other requirements. Just need the second QPQ.

Thanks
ISD and
Mandarax, second QPQ now completed. I see what you mean about the closeness of the links. How's the ALT below? -

ALT1:... that the 130th Regiment of Foot, raised by George Pigot in 1794, was disbanded just two years later after suffering heavy losses due to tropical disease?
Yes that all appears fine. I prefer the ALT1 hook too.
