Deletion for off-topic material

[edit]

This provocatively summarised large deletion was made without discussion and was quickly reverted. The IP editor may have a point, however: does Anglo-Saxonism in the 19th century, followed by purported examples until modern times, have much to do with Drake?--AntientNestor (talk) 08:14, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Provocatively summarised"? The edit summary was vile. Given that the information is in the "Legacy and honours" section, it is certainly pertinent to Drake, that old pirate.;-) Carlstak (talk) 13:01, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
