- Reviewed: Kirkcudbright war memorial
- Comment: Eligible per Rule 1d, because it only appeared in the "Recent Deaths" section of ITN and not as a bold link.

New enough and large enough expansion. Eligible as a recent death. QPQ present. Also added a "the" to the hook, which is interesting and justified by sources. The "helped" wording occurs in the PennLive source and in the Tyler Morning Telegraph article. No issues to report. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:10, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
