Hi The C of E, review follows: article created 13 July; article exceeds minimum length, is well written and cited inline to reliable sources throughout; I didn't find any issues with overly close paraphrasing from the online sources; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to various of the sources cited; a QPQ has been carried out. It's good to go as it is but I note the Economic Times says he was 77 at the time of the Battle of Palma, that might add extra interest to the article/hook? - Dumelow (talk) 06:48, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
