== Suggestions for a very nice article ==

Hi Tasos,

It has been a while since I have logged on to Wikipedia - I did this morning and ended up looking at this latest article you have been working on. It is wonderful! I see that you are still editing and I have a few suggestions... I hope they are useful! :)

* Perhaps do not capitalize "Library" in the section titled "British blockade of Corfu"
* A few more wiki links might be good :-) e.g. [[Louis XVIII of France]] when he is mentioned, [[Battle of Waterloo]] when it is mentioned in the "Waterloo" section, [[Martinique]] in the "Martinique" section
* Again in the first sentence of the "Martinique" section, you write "[He was] Governor of Martinique from 1818&endash;1826" ... I think it might be better written out as "... from 1818 to 1826."
* Regarding the military colonisation programme, you write that "[he implemented] a military colonisation programme" but then later in the paragraph that "[the plan] was never implemented." I understand the meaning, but it is a little confusing and might warrant clarification :)
* In the paragraph regarding naval support for Spain, who or where is "Canning"? Right now the wikilink is to an article about preserved food.
* Any chance of adding dates to the Martinique events?
* At the end I was left wondering... to where did he retire? Is a date of death known or just a year?

As I said, this article is wonderful!! and it is a very nice read. Thanks for writing it! I hope my suggestions are useful :)

Sincerely,
Iamunknown

Suggestions for a very nice article

Hi Tasos,

It has been a while since I have logged on to Wikipedia - I did this morning and ended up looking at this latest article you have been working on. It is wonderful! I see that you are still editing and I have a few suggestions... I hope they are useful! :)

  • Perhaps do not capitalize "Library" in the section titled "British blockade of Corfu"
  • A few more wiki links might be good :-) e.g. Louis XVIII of France when he is mentioned, Battle of Waterloo when it is mentioned in the "Waterloo" section, Martinique in the "Martinique" section
  • Again in the first sentence of the "Martinique" section, you write "[He was] Governor of Martinique from 1818&endash;1826" ... I think it might be better written out as "... from 1818 to 1826."
  • Regarding the military colonisation programme, you write that "[he implemented] a military colonisation programme" but then later in the paragraph that "[the plan] was never implemented." I understand the meaning, but it is a little confusing and might warrant clarification :)
  • In the paragraph regarding naval support for Spain, who or where is "Canning"? Right now the wikilink is to an article about preserved food.
  • Any chance of adding dates to the Martinique events?
  • At the end I was left wondering... to where did he retire? Is a date of death known or just a year?

As I said, this article is wonderful!! and it is a very nice read. Thanks for writing it! I hope my suggestions are useful :)
