A fact from HMS Doterel (1808) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 July 2016 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
I have named this article HMS Doterel (1808) because this is consistent with similar articles such as HMS Pickle (1800), HMS Beagle (1804), HMS Speedy (1782) etc, and because there were a large amount of existing incoming redlinks for this name. If you disagree, by all means initiate a requested move to HM Brig-sloop or similar but please bear in mind the aforementioned issues.
