Plan of Fort St. Louis (crop)

... that Jonas Moore was mortally wounded in the attack on Fort St. Louis in March 1741, and that it has been surmised that the British defeat might have been avoided had he survived? Source: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Dictionary_of_National_Biography,_1885-1900/Moore,_Jonas_(1691%3F-1741)

QPQ: - Not done
Overall: Just a couple issues on my part, the image is not particularly clear as pictured and I don't believe the QPQ rules say anything about having 5+ credits but only a few without a QPQ, just that you have to provide one if you have five or more credits at all.

@PCN02WPS: Yeah, I see now that I've misread the QPQ rules, so I've added a QPQ above. Also a clearer image. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 05:33, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ficaia and PCN02WPS:

while DYK does allow the verbatim, attributed copying of public-domain text, it doesn't count towards the 1500B length minimum, thus placing this article under the line with its copying of the wikisource bio. Could this be rectified before promotion? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 14:01, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Theleekycauldron: Can I withdraw this nomination? 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 10:23, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ficaia: Indeed you can. With regret, closing. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 10:52, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
