I'll take a look at this shortly. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 15:30, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Prelim

• No duplicated links
• No images to check (perhaps something like File:Battle of Hatteras Inlet Batteries.png could be added?)
  • I've added the suggested image
• No edit wars
• Earwig report copyvio unlikely

Just a note to say that despite all appearances I haven't forgotten about this. Work commitments have left me with little free time; I hope to finish this within the week. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 18:28, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

No worries; I've been busy enough with work this week I wouldn't have been able to spend much time on this anyway. Hog Farm _Talk 20:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Lede and infobox

• Link gunboat
  • Done
• "it was purchased" choose "it" or "she", but not both
  • Standardized
• Link commerce raiding
  • Done
• Is there any source that specifically mentions her being the namesake of Warren Winslow?
  • Not that I've seen, the fuller Warren Winslow name is only used in passing in the sources
• Operator would rather be the CSN rather than wider CSA
  • Done. There are also situations (mainly along the Mississippi River) where the Confederate Army was operating the ships instead of the Navy

Service history

• I think it would be useful to mention the Civil War itself somewhere in main text
  • Done
• Provide the ship types for Beaufort and Raleigh
  • Done
• Link commerce raiding
  • Done
• "May and June 1861" repeated year
  • Removed year
• "service with" not sure about this wording. Perhaps "service in" or "serve with"?
  • Done
• Link prize
  • Done
• "historican" sp
  • Oops, fixed
• "July 1861" repeated year
  • Removed
• "but were unable to due so due to weather" needs work
  • Fixed
• Worth mentioning that according to DANFS Winslow carried Samuel Barron at Hatteras, and the men were evacuated to Goldsboro?
  • Added (Barron from Barrett, Goldsboro from DANFS)

References

• References look good. AGF for print sources.
• Official Records could do with an OCLC
  • Added

@Hog Farm: Hi, that's all I have for now. My sincerest apologies for keeping you waiting for what is not the largest of articles to review. Have a fulfilling break from Wikipedia, and I hope to see you back here one day! Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 10:53, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

@Pickersgill-Cunliffe: - Thanks for the review! Changes/replies are above. I will be away from my sources for most of next week, but will try to respond as possible. Hog Farm _Talk 00:20, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

@Hog Farm: Passing this article as satisfying the GA criteria. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 16:01, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
