@Dumelow: Thanks for this interesting article (which I first noticed on the DYK nomination page). The opening sentence refers to the Guard in the singular: "The Governor's Body Guard of Light Horse was ...", but throughout the article it is also referred to in the plural, for example in the next sentence "They were established ..." rather than "It was established ...". For consistency I suggest using the singular throughout when when referring to the unit as an entity. I am happy to make the edits if others agree. ~ RLO1729💬 02:23, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Decided to be bold and make the edits suggested above while I was here. ~ RLO1729💬 05:54, 7 April 2020 (UTC)

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: In the hook, I have changed "appear" to "appears" as the Guard is a single entity, and "captured" to "arrested" to match the wording of the article. If the nominator agrees then this DYK is good to go. ~ RLO1729💬 03:52, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
@Dumelow: Hi again, wondering if should I nominate this article for GA. What do you think? Cheers. :) ~ RLO1729💬 08:29, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
