Journal de Malte

  • ... that publication of Malta's first newspaper was discontinued after about 10 issues due to a local uprising? Source: "This insurrection spelled the end of Malta's first newspaper" (source)
    • ALT1:... that a Maltese word meaning "newspaper" is derived from the Journal de Malte, a short-lived propaganda publication from the French occupation of Malta in 1798? Source: "The contents show quite clearly the aims of the newspaper: propaganda in favour of the French" (source), "the Maltese word for newspaper today is still gurnal" (source)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg Interesting article. New enough, long enough, well referenced, with no close paraphrasing. Both hooks are interesting and cited to reliable sources. For what it's worth, I think "about 10 issues" is a reasonable way of summarising the uncertainty around the true number of issues. QPQ is done. 97198 (talk) 14:28, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
