Reviewing this one, I have only noted a few things; otherwise this is looking to be in great shape.
- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
- 1) The link for "hurricane deck" goes to a dab page.
2) Although mentioned in the lead, the West Gulf Blockading Squadron is not mentioned in main body of article. I suggest amending the 1st paragraph of the Civil War service; perhaps: "The ship, again towed by Bienville, reached Mobile Bay on 20 July, where it joined the West Gulf Blockading Squadron." Farragut would have to be clarified as the squadron commander in the following section.
3) I know this is probably being real pedantic but the post-war service doesn't explicitly say the ship is in reserve (as per the lead). Perhaps modify the relevant section to read something like "...when she sailed to Norfolk, Virginia, to join the reserve fleet." Or something similar
- 1) The link for "hurricane deck" goes to a dab page.

Don't expect my feedback will take much work to address! Zawed (talk) 09:21, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I only just noticed this just now. The DAB for hurricane deck provides the definition as the first bullet. Good catch on the WGBS, added. The link for in ordinary says that it means in reserve in the last line. Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:05, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
