Lede and infobox[edit]

Suggest adding the number of guns in the first line of the lede, e.g. "36-gun Amazon-class frigate"
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:16, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Link 18-pounder long gun in lede and infobox
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:16, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You switch between using "pounder" and "pdr", suggest only using one version for consistency throughout the article
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:32, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Suggest "Amiable drove off"
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:16, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Link truss
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:16, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
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
I've trimmed a bit but I'm keen to keep it a full summary of the article. --Ykraps (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
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
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I believe it's normal to link the "in" in "in ordinary" as well (phew, that's a lot of ins!)
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The date of order is only mentioned in the lede, not in main text
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ibid John Tovey, launch date
Added launch date to main body. John Tovey? --Ykraps (talk) 19:19, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have John Tovey as the master shipwright in the infobox but he isn't mentioned in main text. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 20:40, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Added. --Ykraps (talk) 05:08, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Give the exact date of sale in the lede, as you do have it
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Remove trailing zeros in measurements, e.g. 143 ft 0 in (43.6 m) becomes 143 ft (43.6 m)
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:12, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Add spaces after the colons in the infobox
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Link keel and gundeck in infobox
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:12, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pickersgill-Cunliffe:, Do you have anything else to add? --Ykraps (talk) 07:53, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
