Prelim
- No duplicated links
- No images to check. Suggest adding a general image such as
File:Battle of Fort Hindman.png
- No edit wars
- Earwig reports copyvio unlikely
Lede and infobox
- Infobox missing ship country
- Lede should probably mention that she was purchased by the Union
- For the type in infobox, would "Tinclad sternwheel steamer" work better?
- Link
long tons
- Removed, as none of the sources specify which measure of tonnage was used
Construction and characteristics
- "were intended to have light drafts" were intended? Did they not already have their small drafts before the purchase?
- Give Porter his rank
- "The process of converting Glide"
- Stipulate long tons as in infobox
Service history
- Link
flotilla
- "part of a naval force" makes it sound like this force differs to the aforementioned Watson Smith flotilla?
- Reworded a bit - not all of the Watson Smith flotilla was actually involved in the shelling of the fort
- Link
batteries - can you stipulate where these batteries were?
- Why is Glide trying to fire into the rear of the fort after it has been captured?
- Link
ashpan
- Suggest moving the sentence on the origin of the fire to after Glide has finished burning
- DANFS has the fire starting in the forward part of the ship, which could be added for a little detail
- Give the second Glide her USS
References
- References look good, AGF for print sources
