- Thanks for the review Storye book. I agree with your changes to the article. I've fixed the strange wording you picked up, I meant to refer to the decision to withdraw - Dumelow (talk) 19:08, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

- Template:Ping You've put this in for an anniversary special occasion on 20 February, but the date in the article and sources is 22 February (1814). Is the 20 February request an error, or is there another reason for it? Spokoyni (talk) 09:08, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
