... that the events following the Battle of Stainmore have been called the end of the first Viking age in England?

Comment: Unsure why DYKcheck is saying this isn't a 5x expansion, but checking this version against the current version seems to show the required expansion.

5x expanded by CSJJ104 (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 11 past nominations.

Expansion length and date, hook, qpq, close paraphrase check ok. --Soman (talk) 01:31, 27 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
