Where the battle took place
editThe battle ocurred on the La Plata River in Argentine waters, nothing to do with the place shown in the map. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.198.204.68 (talk) 13:19, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- That was another battle, in a different Riachuelo. DPdH (talk) 21:07, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
Rangel
editThe Rangel is a mistake in the Brazilian sources. there was no such ship at the battle. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vawarner2000 (talk • contribs) 00:01, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Agree, I have a list of the ships in the battle, will fix it now and reference it (since this lacks reference). Veritiel (talk) 11:46, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Casualites
editIn the article of battle of Riachuelo is said that the Brazilan Forces had 247 deaths, but i found a list that says that the Brazil had: mortos (portuguese for deads) feridos (portuguese for wounded)
Amazonas -> 13 Mortos e 13 Feridos
Belmonte -> 9 Mortos e 23 Feridos
Iguatemi -> 1 Morto e 6 Feridos
Jequitinhonha -> 8 Mortos e 33 Feridos
Parnaíba -> 33 Mortos e 29 Feridos
Beberibe -> 5 Mortos e 19 Feridos
Araguari -> 2 Mortos e 5 Feridos
Ipiranga -> 1 Morto e 6 Feridos
Mearim -> 2 Mortos e 8 Feridos
Total 74 deaths 142 Wounded
i think this should be changed right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cypher3 (talk • contribs) 23:53, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
No, the article says 247 casualties, not 247 deads. There are other sources with the same number of casualties, but with 123 deads and 124 missing and wounded. see: http://www.reocities.com/Pentagon/Camp/2523/
Lost ships
editIs there a source listing the Paraguayan ships lost? Thanks, DPdH (talk) 21:15, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
