NB: Rolled R is a disambiguation page. Consider fixing. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:19, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review Hawkeye7, it came from my recent dabbling in Falklands War ships. I am amazed that we only have two articles on Thatcher speeches, possibly another project for the future! I looked at Rolled R but couldn't work out which was applicable. Perhaps when it is on the main page someone with the right knowledge will fix it - Dumelow (talk) 06:09, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. I couldn't figure it out either. I have had some interest in the Falklands War. I wrote the article on British logistics in the Falklands War and took it to FAC. But I know very little about British politics. Congrats. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:10, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
