  • Images appropriately licensed
  • Earwig 16%
  • The conversion into warships for the River Defense Fleet vessels adding 1 inch (2.5 cm) of iron plating backed by 4 inches (10 cm) of oak planking Missing word?
  • Link 32-pounder gun and tell readers that it was smoothbore muzzle loader
  • Proximity alert for the ship's name in the first para of the Plumb Point Bend para. Mix up how you refer to the ship by using pronouns, etc.
  • became ungrounded awkward
  • Link salvaged
  • Substitute barrier for blockade?

Mostly done. I'm still working on turning up a source that repeats the obvious claim that the 32-pounder was smoothbore and muzzle loading; everybody seems to view that as an understood fact. Hog Farm Talk 02:48, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
