Prelim

 * Union blockade duplicated in the lede
 * Fixed
 * Image correctly licensed
 * Article is stable
 * Earwig reports copyvio unlikely

Lede and infobox

 * Add |Ship type=Gunboat
 * Done
 * Either introduce the ship type for every ship in the lede, or do it for none
 * Should be standardized now
 * "inactivated" - either "inactive" or "deactivated"
 * Changed
 * "She continued service in the Savannah are in 1864" something missing here
 * A spelling error; "are" should have been "area"
 * "covered the Confederate retreat from the city" sentence doesn't say what covered the retreat
 * Fixed
 * Scuttling and "Burned to prevent capture" are not the same thing
 * Have reworded both here and later in the article
 * Suggest formatting the armament as * 1 × Dahlgren gun * 1 × Brooke rifle
 * Done

Design

 * Main text doesn't actually mention the ACW directly
 * Done
 * Do we know Maury's rank?
 * Added, although I had to use a different source than Canney, who apparently never references Maury by rank
 * Link Confederate States Navy
 * It was linked earlier on Confederate in a kind of MOS:EGG-gy way, so I've cleaned up the linking there
 * Give Chattahoochee her ship type
 * Done, and have added a page to the cited page range for where this info came from
 * "considers the use of more secure fastening to be significant" in what way?
 * I've rephrased this fairly thoroughly
 * "and the request davits" doesn't make sense
 * A failed attempt at "requisite", fixed

Construction and service

 * Done
 * Give the ship types for Savannah and Sampson
 * Added - I've gone with gunboat and receiving ship, which was the roles the two generally served.
 * "which moved downstream"
 * Done
 * "desparate" is this a sp?
 * I checked Browning, and this is a spelling error on my part
 * "helsman" sp
 * Ugh. Fixed. I blame the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education for my spelling issues
 * "returning Kennard" Kennard isn't a ship!
 * I cannot fathom why I would have italicized that
 * Why were men being transferred to Charleston?
 * added - Union forces were attacking the city
 * "Charleton" sp
 * oops, fixed
 * What was Armstrong's rank?
 * Added, Lt.
 * "Causten's Bluff is circled in red in the upper right." upper left?
 * Fixed, and have also fixed the spelling issue of "Causten" vs "Causton"
 * "Permament command of Isondiga was Lieutenant Hamilton Dalton." something missing here
 * Rephrased
 * Give Sherman's rank, ibid Hardee
 * Added, although I had to plug in Browning to support the exact ranks

 * "On December 18, Hunter ordered"?
 * Fixed
