  • Article is stable
  • Earwig reports copyvio unlikely

Lede and infobox[edit]

  • Suggest adding the number of guns in the first line of the lede, e.g. "36-gun Amazon-class frigate"
  • Link 18-pounder long gun in lede and infobox
  • You switch between using "pounder" and "pdr", suggest only using one version for consistency throughout the article
  • Suggest "Amiable drove off"
  • Link truss
  • Considering the size of the article I think that the lede is a tad long. The final paragraph on the mutiny could be shortened to provide slightly less detail on, for example, the exact disciplined meted out
  • Probably worth mentioning the French Revolutionary Wars early in the lede just to make it very obvious what we're relating the Peace of Amiens to
  • I believe it's normal to link the "in" in "in ordinary" as well (phew, that's a lot of ins!)
  • The date of order is only mentioned in the lede, not in main text
  • Ibid John Tovey, launch date
  • Give the exact date of sale in the lede, as you do have it
  • Remove trailing zeros in measurements, e.g. 143 ft 0 in (43.6 m) becomes 143 ft (43.6 m)
  • Add spaces after the colons in the infobox
  • Link keel and gundeck in infobox
