- ... that Edward Glemham destroyed two Spanish vessels, repulsed four galleys, and captured a rich Venetian merchant ship in his first voyage as a privateer in 1590?

New, long enough, referenced, interesting hook. The sources support the hook. QPQ is done. I replaced the article's infobox with one I thought more fitting; hope that is ok. Otherwise, this is good to go. Applodion (talk) 10:46, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Ficacia and Applodion: I'm going to be the nitpickiest of nitpickers; since public domain text doesn't count towards WP:DYK's length requirement, this article fell juuust short, at 1499 bytes. No worries, I've taken care of it, but something to keep in mind :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 18:40, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
