Thank you today for HMS Levant (1758), about an "eighteenth century Royal Navy frigate with a solid record as a hunter of French, Spanish and American privateers. Launched in 1758 and in service during both the Seven Years' War and the American Revolutionary War, defeating a total of 24 enemy vessels."! - We have a featured topic to review. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:18, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
Appeal to ARBPIA topic ban
User:Euryalus, shalom. I have submitted an appeal to my topic ban in the ARBPIA area, which you can see here. The procedure requires of me to inform the one who imposed the topic ban, and Administrator Ed Johnston thought that you should also be informed.Davidbena (talk) 00:43, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Hi @Davidbena: thanks for the message. I'm kind of away from Wikipedia (this = my first edit in six months), so don't really have anything to add. Sorry about that, and all the best with the appeal. -- Euryalus (talk) 04:25, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
HMS Levant (1758) scheduled for TFA
This is to let you know that the HMS Levant (1758) article has been scheduled as today's featured article for July 6, 2020. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/July 6, 2020, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.
For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.
We suggest that you watchlist Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:43, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Jimfbleak: thanks for the notification, I'd forgotten about this article so it's nice to be reminded of it. It's had one notable content addition since I worked in it, which probably needs slightly more detailed referencing - I've asked the editor who added it for that additional detail and hopefully they'll provide it before this is scheduled to appear. Depending on that material there may need to be a change to the blurb - if these additional victories were merely unarmed merchantmen then the blurb is fine, but if they were combat vessels in any form then the vessel's total number of victories is wrong. I suspect the former is true but I don't have any record of these at all so it will be up to the editor who added them to link or further interpret their source. - Euryalus (talk) 06:13, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
