Prelim

 * Destroyer is technically a duplicated link but as it's in different sections it's allowed now
 * Good spot though.
 * No edit wars
 * Image is correctly licensed
 * Earwig reports copyvio unlikely

Lede and infobox

 * Is there a redirect to this page using a variation of HMS Dragon? If not I don't think you need to bold the name; she never served under it
 * Removed.
 * Is 24 August 1922 the date of her decommissioning or her sale for scrapping (or both?)
 * The source says date of sale. Ammended.

Design and development

 * Link knots
 * Added.

Construction and career

 * "that were all received"
 * Removed.
 * Link commissioning
 * Added.
 * The First World War is never mentioned in main text
 * Added.
 * Was the Battle of Heligoland Bight not on 28 August?
 * It seems that the ships sailed on 27 August but the encounter took place on the following day. Amended.
 * "succeeded to drive" > "succeeded in driving"
 * Fixed.
 * Link refitted
 * Added.
 * "undertaking the varied tasks typical of a destroyer's service at the time" I assume you mean the tasks you then discuss after this sentence, but the reader shouldn't be left to guess
 * Clarified.
 * "anti-aircraft guns"
 * Added.
 * "which were themselves" > "which was itself"
 * Amended.
 * Surely the capture of two German trawlers is a success rather than an incident?
 * True. Amended.
 * "flotilla supporting an attack"
 * Added.
 * "Lookout again remaining unscathed" any particular actions she took during this engagement?
 * There is nothing specific in the sources.
 * Link Plymouth
 * Amended to Devonport as more accurate, and linked.
 * What did Lookout do in 1918?
 * The sources do not say much, but I have added what I have.
