being sank in an action on 13 January Bad grammar and this isn't quite right as she was wrecked after having broken off the engagement. Don't name Droits de Homme in the lede, just that she was a ship of the line.
Changed to "...wrecked following an action on 13 January with a French ship-of-the-line". --Ykraps (talk) 19:27, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The lede's too short add something about the prizes taken by the ships or something.
Extended. See what you think. --Ykraps (talk) 19:27, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The earlier Amazon's are really only background info for these ships. So I'd recommend deleting the stuff you added to the lede about them and substituting info about the ships captured by the quartet.
Okay, I have removed and added a bit more about service, including some notable engagements. --Ykraps (talk) 19:39, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
18 pounders hyphenate this as it's a compound adjective modifying long gun and drop the terminal "s".
Done. --Ykraps (talk) 19:27, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know when this happened? Otherwise looks good thus far.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:03, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, after the second pair were ordered. Now added. --Ykraps (talk) 19:39, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't see any real need to detail the third design as Naiad suffices
Removed. --Ykraps (talk) 19:51, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Amazon section is too short; add something about the privateers that she captured.
Added captures and mpre detail about her engagement with Droits de l'Homme. See what you think. --Ykraps (talk) 19:39, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You've got several different styles of footnotes, I suggest that you standardize on one.

Don't forget to italicize the ship names in the new para you added to the lede. I'm going to promote now regardless.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:17, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
