 * Symbol possible vote.svg Article length and creation date are fine, and I've made necessary grammatical and wikilink changes to the hook. But the actual statement that Lawrence was the first Settlement Commissioner of Kashmir lacks an inline citation, and it isn't clear if the offline citation a couple sentences later applies to that assertion.

 * I‘ve made the necessary correction in the article and added a reference. The word “first“ needs to be omitted, because none of the reference says first Settlement Commissioner of Kashmir.  Mehra j Mir  '(Talk)  15:49, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Symbol possible vote.svg Article creation date is not fine: article was created on June 22, and would have needed to be nominated by June 28 in order to qualify. It was nominated on July 1. This is far closer than others subsequently nominated by Mehrajmir13, which range from a few weeks to a couple of months after creation/expansion, but it is nonetheless outside the five days specified. As it was the first to be nominated after Maile66 nominated one of his, perhaps WP:IAR would apply here. However, an exception should be specifically noted, if being granted.
