Hound

[edit]

@Acad Ronin: Hi, do you have another reference for Hound sailing on to Bombay? I don't think that Lloyd's mentions it. Thanks, Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 20:55, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pickersgill-Cunliffe: All I have are the LL items I added. The items have her leaving Madeira for the EI and have her arriving from Bombay, but there is none that has her arriving there. Winfield merely states that in October 1782 she sailed for the EI, and that she was broken up at Woolwich in 1784. Acad Ronin (talk) 21:05, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Acad Ronin: Ah, got it now. Thanks. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 21:08, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I will review this one in the next few days. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 08:50, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Design

  • both of which were anomalous types: suggest "both of which were anomalous types of ships"
  • Done
  • the navy ordered...: shouldn't navy be capitalised?
  • Reworded anyway
  • ...twenty-nine of them, of which ten were of fifty guns.: not sure of the consistency of writing out numbers, particularly fifty, since "50-gun" is used earlier in the text.
  • Reworded

Construction

  • No issues

Disappearance

  • No issues, but I suggest having the main heading as Service, with Disappearance as a subheading for the paragraph starting "Having reached South America". I appreciate that this would be more of an editorial choice though, hence it is a suggestion only.
  • Done

other stuff

  • Sources look fine
  • Image tags OK
  • No dupe links

Only a few issues found, this looks to be in pretty good order otherwise. Placing on hold. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 08:38, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Zawed: Hi, thanks for the review. Have replied above. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 13:58, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Happy with these changes, so am passing this as GA as I believe that it meets the necessary criteria. Zawed (talk) 08:23, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
