Talk:Akure–Benin War

Dates
I came across this page while going through DYK-scheduled hooks, and was struck by the absence of dates in the article. This war happened in 1818, but it isn't mentioned when in the year it occurred, or even how long it lasted – it seems like a strange omission to me. —  RAVEN PVFF   · talk  · 18:36, 15 April 2024 (UTC)


 * All I know and could find is 1818, I wasn’t existing by then and no source mention the exact time in 1818 that it happened. Do you expect me to put any random date in 1818? This is not a question you should answer though. It’s a matter of WP:V. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:14, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Vanderwaalforces, what's a Chalk of Good Tidings? Neocorelight (Talk) 01:36, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Neocorelight Hi there, a "Chalk of Good Tidings" was usually sent to all vassals of the Kingdom, letting them know that a new Oba has ascended the throne. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 08:19, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
