French frigate Junon (1806)[edit]

  • ... that in 1809 the French frigate Junon was captured by the British, then recaptured by the French and set on fire?
  • ALT1:... that in 1809, HMS Junon was captured by the French through the use of a false flag?
  • Comment: Alt1 uses a piped link to the article, because the ship has two names - if this is a problem please let me know and will reword.

5x expanded by Euryalus (talk). Self nominated at 13:37, 1 December 2014 (UTC).

  • I like the Alt slightly more than the original. Article was expanded 5x on the 29th and so was nominated in time. It is fully cited to offline sources and so copyvio checks cannot be done, so taking good faith on those. It meets size requirements and there are no images to check. Good to go.
