Improved to Good Article status by Ykraps (talk). Self-nominated at 08:37, 21 November 2018 (UTC).
Hi Ykraps, review follows: Article promoted to GA on 20 November; article is of good length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; the majority of sources are offline (only the short London gazette Ccitations are online) but I am happy to AGF that there is no copyright violation; hooks are mentioned in the article and are cited to the offline sources (again, happy to AGF that they support this); hooks are interesting, my preference is for the first one (personally I might add "the frigate" in front of the ship name to make it clear that how unusual it would be for such a small ship to come to the aid of a ship of the line); QPQ has been done. A very nice article which looks good to go - Dumelow (talk) 17:58, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
