DYK for Charles MacTavish

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
 

On 17 March 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Charles MacTavish, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Charles Carroll MacTavish, the great-grandson of a signatory of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, was briefly a member of the British House of Commons? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Charles MacTavish. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Charles MacTavish), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
