  • New enough, long enough. Article complies with major content policies and is very solidly sourced, no copyvio issues detected. QPQ done. I find ALT1 more interesting and have edited to make it more succinct, feel free to revert if this isn't felt to be an improvement. I was able to verify the hook through the source given and it is also present in the article with an inline citation. I must note that whilst the person relating this fact is a distant relative and this possibly raises a COI issue at face value, I would expect an extensive degree of the bloodlines mixing after a given number of generations in a tiny tiny community like Pitcairn, so in all likelihood there isn't a plausible reason for this author to exaggerate the role of this particular person. I wonder if adding the year of this event (1838) would make the hook even more interesting. Regardless of the small print though, this is good to go. Thank you very much for a well-written article, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. --GGT (talk) 02:58, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
