• In the infobox, Captured & Acquired give a date of 3 May 1747, but the text gives the correct date of 14 May 1747. Use the correct date.
  • Corrected, but added a note to explain the discrepancy. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Tonnage is listed as 1,019 bm in the cited text, but it is 1,286 bm in the infobox.
  • Corrected to 1,286. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Ordered (6 February 1738) is listed in the infobox, but not in the text. It should be listed and cited in the text or cited in the infobox.
  • Added into the text. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Draught (6.50 / 6.74 m) is listed in the infobox, but not in the text. It should be listed and cited in the text or cited in the infobox.
  • Added into the text. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Design and description, paragraph 2, sentence 4: "twenty-six 24-pounders on the lower gun deck, twenty-eight 12-pounders on the upper gun deck". Add links to 24-pounder long gun and 12-pounder long gun. Sadly, there is no link for the 6-pounder naval gun of the 1700s.
  • Added links. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Royal Navy, paragraph 3, sentence 2: "and sailed with Hawke's fleet". I believe it needs a link for Hawke.
  • Added a link. Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
• Royal Navy, paragraph 3, sentence 8: "Towards the end of the battle". I believe it should be "Toward".
  • ENGVAR thing; US English prefers "Toward", BrEng prefers "Towards". Harrias ^talk 08:58, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
    • Got me on that one. Djmaschek (talk) 19:37, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Pictures

• The infobox picture needs a PD-US or PD-US-expired tag. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/United_States#Copyright_tags. Djmaschek (talk) 00:07, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
  • I hate Commons licensing. Should be sorted now. Harrias ^talk 09:44, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
    • I also find it murky. Djmaschek (talk) 19:37, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
