  • Displacement in the prose in 3,200 long tons; in the infobox its 3,400
  • "15-inch (381 mm) Dahlgren guns mounted in two twin-gun turrets," - Link gun turrets here, rather than later in the article
  • The image caption is flagged with a disambiguation needed tag, apparently Severn River is a dab page
  • In the infobox, you give a range for the scrapping of 1873-1874. Only it being sold for scrap in 1873 is mentioned in the prose. If the process continued into 1874, this needs cited.
    • Sold for scrap and being scrapped are two different, albeit closely related, things. The former is a single event and the latter is a time-consuming process.
  • In the prose, 1,400 ihp is converted as 1,000 kW, in the infobox, it's 1,044 kW. Be consistent with rounding.
  • This is a bit odd, but I'm pretty sure the source link for the infobox picture is for a different picture than the file itself. I'm sure the photo is PD one way or the other, but the correct link would be nice (I get that there's likely a low chance of finding the right one.)

That's it. I'm honestly not expecting there to be a good solution to the last one. Hog Farm Bacon 01:58, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Found the right photo on the NHHC website and updated its info.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:16, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
