Merger proposal

Regatta and boat race are both terms for races or series of races between boats. The regatta article says a regatta is a series of boat races, but most notable "boat races" are actually series. I'm a little ambivalent about whether the destination should be regatta or boat racing or boat race. I don't know much about powerboat racing, but I gather it is not common to call a powerboat race a regatta, so maybe boat race is best umbrella term. --Jfhutson (talk) 14:59, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

italics

I consolidated a pair of redundent sentences, and now half the parigraph is in italics. Help! 2603:6010:A5F0:8970:6105:E7C6:A148:55B6 (talk) 01:20, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
