 * Symbol possible vote.svg Hook is 215 characters, excluding "(pictured)", which is over the allowable limit. Please suggest an ALT1 hook that is significantly shorter; while the absolute maximum is officially 200 characters, a better length is below 190 at the outside.

 * ALT1: ... that Sir Charles Saxton (pictured) commanded ships during the Seven Years' War and American War of Independence, and was commissioner at Portsmouth during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars?


 * Includes the salient facts, and is 189 characters long. Benea (talk) 01:18, 20 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg The hook length is now fine, but some of the key facts are not inline cited by the end of the sentence containing them, a requirement of DYK. (This was true originally; the nomination should not have been approved.) In particular, the sentence in the article that is used to support the hook's second half—from "and was commissioner" to the end—needs an inline source citation. Once it has that, the nomination can be reapproved. This is an interesting article: I hope you'll considering trying to make it a Good Article at some point.

 * Thank you for that, I've added a cite to the end of the sentence. Benea (talk) 05:17, 22 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol voting keep.svg Hook fully cited, source accepted in good faith (behind paywall for me); rest of approval per review by Piotrus. BlueMoonset (talk) 12:35, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
