"Four of the guns were mounted in sponsoned on the upper deck," - Maybe it's a technical term I'm not aware of, but sponsoned is a very odd word form. Is this a typo?
- Good catch - that started out along the lines of "four of the guns were sponsoned on the upper deck" and then got rewritten but not entirely, apparently!
"but these were delayed after problems her propulsion system" - Should this be "after problems with her propulstion system"
- Hmm - I had two spaces between "problems" and "her" - must have thought I typed a word when I hadn't - I must be losing my mind
Link torpedo boats
- It's linked on first use in the first para of the body

Do any of the sources indicate the ship's namesake?
- Nothing I've seen, unfortunately; obviously, it's Davout, but I haven't seen anything explicitly state as much

That's it. Very good work. Placing on hold, should be a very quick fix. Hog Farm (talk) 18:15, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
