There exists stub articlescrew sloop with a fair number, 198, of inbound links. It should perhaps be merged toSteam frigate or tosloop-of-war (perhaps specifically toSloop-of-war#Decline, which gives a little context perhaps worth consulting before jumping along its link toSteam frigate). Please comment at informal merger proposal discussion, atTalk:Screw sloop#Merge (revived in 2020). --Doncram (talk)22:09, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
