Charles Stewart (Royal Navy officer)

[edit]

Admiral The Honourable Charles Stewart

  • ... that Charles Stewart (pictured) lost his right hand in a naval battle at the age of 16, yet still reached the rank of vice-admiral?

Created by Benea (talk). Self nominated at 16:42, 23 February 2013 (UTC).

  • Article - created new on 23 February, so new enough; 5392 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig, gave online refs a quick run on duplication detector, made minor change to 'note' to belt & brace similar wording; I've re-assessed as start class.
  • Hook - within length criteria at 140 characters; correctly formatted; correctly cited/supported by online ref #2 in 'Family and early career' section; and interesting.
  • QPQ done.

I'm beginning to wonder if there is a problem with my browser as the license for the image is showing a parameter problem (this is the second I've come across this weekend), so please could you double check/amend the license?

If this minor query can be addressed, this article will be good to go. SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:08, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
The PD-Art template has recently been updated and now requires another parameter to be filled in. Previously this was unnecessary, so it's affecting all the older uploads that used this template, and new ones which follow the existing pattern. I've done so, so it should be good to go.

Thank you for the explanation about the template; it was beginning to make me think I was seeing things!

Sorry, I didn't know that - I have amended the hook. SagaciousPhil - Chat 06:42, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
