I've marked for Edexcel several times. Something like that can get picked up by the person marking the exam. It could also be missed. My advice is to talk to your history teacher and have him/her get the exams officer at your school to contact Edexcel.

is edexcel marking very strict? If I missed the third paragraph for the 16 marker, how many marks would I get maximum?

So you only wrote about two factors instead of three on paper two? Maximum is 10/16

I wrote a third factor but it was out of the date range

Probably still maximum of ten unless the examiner misses the date range and awards you marks.
