 * ALT2:... that fell-running doctor Finlay Wild has won the Ben Nevis Race seven times in a row?
 * Symbol voting keep.svg This article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT1, although the Lochaber News reference now goes to a generic page, but you have quoted above what it used to say. Not approving ALT0 as I can't be sure that nobody else has achieved 7 wins before. I have also suggested ALT2. The article is neutral and I detected no policy issues.

 * I am promoting ALT1, but without the second half of the hook, which does not appear in the article. Also, Lochaber News is a dead link, but the seven wins in a row appear in the Scottish Hill Racing source. Yoninah (talk) 22:13, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
