Demerliac request 8 September 2023
[edit]Hi Rama, two requests, please. 1) Cambridge (1797 ship) was captured by French privateer Braave. We have info about an earlier Braave, but apparently not about this one. 2) HMS Diligent. Does Demerliac have anything on the French privateer Diligente, which became the Royal Navy vessel? Thanks, Acad Ronin (talk) 16:44, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hello,
- I will not be able to access my library for some time, but I will come back to you as soon as I can.

- Hello Acad Ronin, I have surfaced again.
- Brave (no 2281, p.286): Three-masted, 175-tonne British packet boat King Georges, captured by Représailles on 31 July 1803 and commissioned as a privateer at Bordeaux in February 1804. 18.8 metres at the keel, 7.1 metre beam and 4.2 metre draught. Under Louis-Joseph Quoniam with 98 to 120 men, with 16 guns (8 12-pounders and 8 12-pounder carronades). Sold at Vigo to Lapeyre, re-rigged as a schooner, renamed Boléro, and commissioned as a privateer with 14 3-pounder guns. Sold to Pierre Labat, from Bayonne, in December 1806, renameed Atrevido and recommissioned in January 1807 at Santander or at Bayonne. As Atrevido (no 2366, p.292), under Jean-Marie Cochet with 120 men and 16 guns (8 6-pounders and 8 12-pounder howitzers) from January 1807 to October 1807. Another cruise under the same from November 1807 to April 1808 with 18 guns (8 6-pounders, 4 4-pounders and 6 12-pounder howitzers). Decommissioned in April 1808 and sold to Bordeaux shipowner Paul Lafargue in May 1809.
- Diligente (no 1165, p.143): lugger-rigged naval gunboat, probably built at Govino in Corfu between 1809 and 1811. Laid down in March 1810, commissioned on 25 June 1810 with 1 officer and 37 to 40 men with 1 12-pounder gun, 1 4-pounder and 3 swivel guns. Captured by HMS Cephalus on 6 January 1813 between Corfu and Otranto.
- There is no privateer from Marseille with compatible dates that I could propose as an alternative and the dates do not match, so I am uncertain what is happening there.

Museum photography, metadata, and French exhibits
[edit]Hello,
I'm new to contributing to Wikimedia and Wikipedia, with a specific interest and focus of mine being Mesoamerican history and archeology, and contributing photos from museums on those topics. I was wanting to get in touch with you regarding advice for taking and processing photos; best practices for how to list and present metadata and information on file pages and via Wikidata, as well as to talk about potentially you taking some photos of specific exhibits in France.
Please let me know if you're able or interested to talk about any of this!
