  • Comment: The position was briefly combined in 1661 and this is notified in the article. This is why I used the term "full-time". The source I used seemed to deem that the period in 1661 was "brief" and not worth counting.

  • @AtticTapestry: @Jolly Janner: "Full-time" is an assumption that I'm not sure is justified by the sources. 1661 to 1762 is a full century though, so why not just use that number instead? Gamaliel (talk) 23:20, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
  • Thank you, Gamaliel. That is a valid criticism and I have slightly tweaked the original hook and proposed it as an alternative. Jolly Ω Janner 04:55, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
Thank you Jolly Janner. I tweaked your new hook a bit. I think this is ready to go if you are okay with ALT2. Gamaliel (talk) 18:34, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
Fine by me. I just wanted to avoid the word century twice in one sentence. I'm sure it'll get edited in the prep/queue if needed. Thanks. Jolly Ω Janner 04:59, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Oops, I hadn't noticed that! Changing it back. Gamaliel (talk) 05:36, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
