  • After rereading this, possibly this is a better wording?
Alt1 ... that a warrant was issued to pay a force to relieve the Siege of Perth in October 1339, after the garrison had already surrendered on 17 August? CSJJ104 (talk) 00:24, 30 July 2024 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Nice new article, well sourced (to mostly offline sources) and a sufficiently interesting hook (Alt1). I added a '1339,' and 'already' to Alt1; perhaps the '17 August' isn't needed at all? QPQ requirement is complete. Chaiten1 (talk) 16:44, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
