Following the theat of invasion during the American War of Independence, a large Irish Volunteer movement was formed to supplement the Irish Army. Although primarily led by Protestant Patriots, it also attracted many Catholic recruits. Although loyal to the crown, the volunteers became a force to pressure the government in London to give greater powers to the Parliament of Ireland which was granted in 1782 as Grattan's Parliament. Wheatley was in Ireland after fleeing London to escape his creditors. While in Dublin he also produced The Irish House of Commons, a notable depiction of the Irish Parliament.
The work was displayed at the exhibition of the Irish Society of Artists in 1760.Kilfeather p.62 The painting is today in the National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin, having been acquired through a gift from the Duke of Leinster in 1891. |

Unfortunately, I'm not finding anything in a BEFORE search to substantiate the notability of this artist. It appears that this is an autobiography. None of the exhibitions are notable, and I cannot find evidence that their work is held in the permeant collections of notable museums or national galleries, so it's an WP:NARTIST fail. Also not finding that they meet WP:GNG as what is present in current sourcing and what was found in the BEFORE is mostly social media or primary sources such as interviews or user-submitted content. No significant reviews or articles in academic journals or art history books. It seems to be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Bringing it here for the community to decide.

BAP Gamarra | refimprove | The BAP Gamarra was a brigantine of the Peruvian Navy, sister ship of the BAP Guise. Its acquisition took place during the first government of President Ramón Castilla y Marquesado, and its name was assigned in honour of former Peruvian President Agustín Gamarra.
The ship was built in 1843 in the shipyards of the city of Trieste —then under the rule of the Austrian Empire and now part of Italy— by order of the Peruvian government. It had 415 tons of displacement, was 77 feet long, 24 feet wide, and had a draft of 14 feet. It was armed with 16 cannons and had a crew of 136 men. |
BAP Gamarra | Service history | Service history
Following the annexation of what is now California —among other territories— by the United States in 1848, the search for gold deposits sparked a mining rush, drawing numerous immigrants. A common practice at that time was the arrival of vessels to the Californian coast —including those from Peru— carrying food, clothing, and tools. Upon selling their cargo, their crews would often abandon the ships to participate in the gold rush, leaving the vessels abandoned or neglected in the port of San Francisco.
In response, a petition was submitted to President Ramón Castilla. On 21 December 1848, he ordered the dispatch of the ship Gamarra to San Francisco, commanded by captain José María Silva Rodríguez. The mission was tasked with locating and, if feasible, reclaiming and returning Peruvian ships. The Gamarra departed on 25 January 1849 and arrived in San Francisco in mid-March.
Upon arrival, the mission identified nine Peruvian vessels: the barges Elisa and San José; the brigantines Susana, Mazzeppa, Elisa, Calderón, Volante, and Andrea; and the schooners Bella Angelita and Atalante. Vessels deemed seaworthy were repaired and refitted for the return voyage, while others were sold.
The Gamarra made brief stopovers in Paita and Huacho before returning to Callao on 30 August 1849.
In 1850, Ramón Castilla, in his message to Congress, made mention of the mission carried out by the ship: |

St Michael's Church, Markington | [[File:St Michaels Church - geograph.org.uk - 2928262.jpg | thumb|right|The church, in 2012
St Michael's Church is the parish church of Markington, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
The church was commissioned by the family of William Wilberforce, and was designed by Adolphus Henry Cates in the early Gothic style. Its construction cost about £900, and it was completed in 1845. It could seat 200 worshippers, and was dedicated to Michael the Archangel by the Bishop of Ripon in 1845. The bellcote and west gable were damaged in 1962 but rebuilt in 1968. A fire in 1973 destroyed the vestry and damaged the sanctuary, but the church was restored and rededicated the following year. It was grade II listed in 1986.
The church is built of gritstone and it has a Westmorland slate roof. It consists of a nave, a south porch, and a lower chancel with a north vestry, and on the west gable is a bellcote. The porch has a pointed arch, above which is a hood mould and a statue in a niche. |

Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil | Short description | The Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil (LNBPF), known for sponsorship reasons as Liga Caliente.mx LNBP Femenil, is a women's professional basketball league in Mexico. Founded in 2022, the league comprises eight teams divided into two regions (North and South) and is the women's counterpart to the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP).
The LNBPF is one of three major professional women's basketball leagues in Mexico, alongside the Liga Mexicana de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil (LMBPF) and the Liga ABC MEX. |
Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil | History | History |
Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil | Initial attempt | Initial attempt
The Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil (LNBPF) was initially established in 2014 by the executives of the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP). The league started with ten teams, seven of which would eventually depart.
The LNBPF was born as a result of the Mexico men's national basketball team's gold medal at the 2013 Pre-Olympic Tournament and the hosting of the 2011 Pan American Games in Guadalajara. Elsa Flores Sánchez, then-vice president of the Liga Nacional de Desarrollo de Basquetbol Femenil (LIBAFEM), was appointed by the president of the Mexican Olympic Committee (COM) to lead the creation of this professional women's basketball space alongside Juan Manuel González.
In early 2017, following the arrival of Sergio Ganem as president of the National League, a dispute arose among the league's team owners. Ganem envisioned that each men's team would have its own female affiliate, sharing infrastructure and sponsorships without consulting the team owners already in place. This led to the league's division.
After the conflict, the Liga Mexicana de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil (LMBPF) emerged, incorporating former LNBPF teams such as Mieleras de Guanajuato, Lobas de Aguascalientes, Mexcaltecas de Nayarit, Tapatías de Jalisco, Rieleras de Aguascalientes, Gamos de la Universidad Marista, Quetzales Sajoma, Nueceras del Estado de México, Leonas Cenhies, and Bengalíes. Eventually, the LNBPF folded, and the LMBPF grew stronger with the support of its fans and team owners. |
Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional Femenil | Rebirth | Rebirth
In 2019, Sergio Ganem, President of the LNBP, announced the inclusion of the women's division, which was planned to start in 2020, though this was postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In a virtual press conference, Ganem Velázquez officially introduced the first edition of the LNBP Women's Tournament, with eight teams taking part. He announced that the inaugural season would begin on April 23, 2022.
The league started with eight teams, which were divided into two geographical zones. In the Northern Zone, the following teams participated: Abejas de León, Astros de Jalisco, Panteras de Aguascalientes, and Libertadoras de Querétaro. In the Southern Zone, the teams were: Fuerza Regia de Monterrey, Plateras de Fresnillo, Halcones de Xalapa, and Adelitas de Chihuahua. |
