5x expanded by Ceradon (talk). Self nominated at 23:20, 3 January 2015 (UTC).
Expanded 5x, easily long enough. Article is well-written, and I have no reason to doubt the veracity of the numerous sources employed. Hook's fine length-wise (I'd go with the first one), and cited (see §5.4). QPQ all sorted, all images are public domain, as you'd expect on a 19th-century topic. Brilliant work, Template:Ping, it's certainly no mean feat to expand a ten-year-old article fivefold, let alone to this sort of standard, and you should definitely considering taking it to GAN, at a minimum. (For what it's worth, I discovered quite recently that Thomas Cocke, who built the original Malvern Hill, is a very, very distant ancestor of mine, which is why this article leapt out at me.)
