Hugh Waddell (general)

[edit]

Created/expanded by Cdtew (talk). Self nom at 16:04, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

  • 5× expansion completed (from 127 character stub to 4477 characters as of December 6). QPQ done and refs 2 and 3 appear reliable. However, the hook is a tad too long. Maximum is 200 characters with spaces and this article has 209 (without counting the ... and ?). May I suggest an alternative? —Bloom6132 (talk) 21:40, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
  • ALT1... that Hugh Waddell helped secure North Carolina's alliance with the Cherokee, but later fought against the tribe during the Anglo-Cherokee War?
  • Hook is under 200 characters. Everything else checks out. Good work! —Bloom6132 (talk) 17:22, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
