+- Bug in :meth:`Series.__pos__` and :meth:`DataFrame.__pos__` did not raise for :class:`StringDtype` with ``storage="pyarrow"`` (:issue:`60710`)
 - Bug in :meth:`Series.rank` for :class:`StringDtype` with ``storage="pyarrow"`` incorrectly returning integer results in case of ``method="average"`` and raising an error if it would truncate results (:issue:`59768`)
 - Bug in :meth:`Series.replace` with :class:`StringDtype` when replacing with a non-string value was not upcasting to ``object`` dtype (:issue:`60282`)
 - Bug in :meth:`Series.str.replace` when ``n < 0`` for :class:`StringDtype` with ``storage="pyarrow"`` (:issue:`59628`)
