Strategically British victory
I would like to propose the insertion of "strategically British victory" under "result" considering in the aftermath of this battle the favour turned to the British, especially regarding Gibraltar. Tactically speaking, however, the battle is indeed indecisive. Kalypson237 (talk) 18:47, 18 April 2019 (UTC)


 * There has been much infobox warring about such terminology. Consequently, per the documentation of infobox military conflict: "Do not introduce non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical", or contradictory statements like "decisive tactical victory but strategic defeat"." (I also don't believe the outcome was even strategically decisive: what was strategically decisive was the resupply of Gibraltar, which took place before this action.)
