This article is in great shape. I have a few comments:

• in the lead, suggest "She was last member of the four-ship Terrible class."
  • Works for me
• in the lead, "thus reduced their ability to be usefully employed" outside of coastal operations?
  • Added
• in Design, include the number of propellers
  • Good catch
• link knots
  • Done
• "22-caliber guns mounted in individual barbette mounts"
  • Department of Redundancy Department calling...
• two or four 47 mm? Do sources vary or is Gardner unsure?
  • Gardiner doesn't know - he says "2/4 3-pdr"
• suggest "nearly submerged entirely"→"almost entirely submerged"
  • Sometimes I wonder how much of a native speaker I am ;)
• Marengo, Furieux, Brest and flagship are duplinked
  • Fixed
• the Modifications section says all of her TTs were removed, but the Service history section says only two were?
  • Confusion between Requin and the others, I think - they only had 2 removed, but Requin lost all of hers
• are Indomptable and Caïman not likely to be notable?
  • Indeed, they're two of Requin's sister ships - I probably assumed they had already been linked
• suggest adding the NHHC template to the USGov tag on File:Requin (1888 ironclad).jpg
  • Done

That's all I have. Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 09:32, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
