GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

The article is basically a Good Article. However, I feel that there are a few minor details to "fix".

Is it reasonably well written?
A. Prose quality:

HMS Zealous was given a straight stem – Does this mean the bow of the ship? If so, what does it mean for the "bow" to be straight?
...converted to an armoured frigate for the price of £239,258. – Is this in 1862 pounds?
Her bottom had not been cleaned since she had left Great Britain... – When was the cleaning?
- Linked. Stems of wooden warships and the earliest ironclads were generally curved outward.
- Yes, see the note for the converted cost.
- It was cleaned before she commissioned.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:50, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
A. References to sources:

B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:

C. No original research:

A. Major aspects:

B. Focused:

Fair representation without bias:
