Medium

 * HMS Guernsey
 * HMS Rooke
 * HMS Lapwing
 * HMS Shearwater - two that I'm aware of.

Low

 * HMS Portia
 * HMS Tartarus
 * HMS Danube
 * HMS Crown
 * HMS Bramble
 * HMS Toronto - what about the 1834 Ex-merchantman Sir Charles Adam used on the Great Lakes - or was this not HMS?
 * HMS Raglan (or Lord Raglan) - was there only the 1915 monitor? - The monitor is the only Raglan or Lord Raglan to my knowledge
 * HMS Hesper
 * HMS Sabrina
 * HMS Camilla
 * HMS Pilot
 * HMS Cynthia
 * HMS Juste - only ever the one as far as I can tell, the former French Juste, which had been the former French ship Deux Frères. Captured 1794, broken up 1811. There have been a few HMS Justitias though.
 * HMS Moorhen ...?
 * HMS Keith - surely more than just the destroyer leader? - just her as far as I know. Odd I agree, but if she was named for George Elphinstone, 1st Viscount Keith, there have been a number of HMS Elphinstones.
 * HMS Junon - I know of the 1809 & 1810 captures (for which redirects exist)
 * HMS Laertes
 * HMS Narborough - there is a link on HMS Termagant which I can't put right
 * HMS Pincher
 * HMS Emperor - currently a redirect, but I know there's at least one more.
 * HMS Hippomenes - I take it the 1803 ship is the only one? - yep, the only one.
 * HMS Jasper - I'm particularly interested in the one that became Amoy as part of Sherard Osborn's "Vampire Fleet". - the vampire fleet? Sounds interesting, I look forward to reading about it!
 * HMS Malacca - I know of the 1809, cancelled 1843 & 1853 vessels (Winfield) - any more?
 * HMS Romulus - is this getting dull yet?
 * HMS Rinaldo - I know of the 1860 sloop and the Condor class sloop of 1900.
 * HMS Hyaena
 * HMS Vulcan - I believe there was a 17th Century Vulcan, which is listed in the article Scilly naval disaster of 1707 - the link points only at the Ship Index page
 * 804 Naval Air Squadron has HMS Ariguani, HMS Springbank & HMS Maplin as CAM ships. Is this correct? - They served as auxiliary ships, and then as catapult armed vessels, so presumably yes. If they had been CAM ships then of course they would not have been.
 * HMS Mullett - please have a check - the armed trawler could probably more appropriately HMT, to indicate her status as a requisitioned trawler, but that's a judgement I'll leave to you.
 * Sorry, I'm not being very clear. I mean, were there only three Mulletts? - Ah yes, with you now. Yes, only three.


 * HMS Mackerel?
 * Talking of fish, there are the other Ballahoo class schooners, HMS Chub (or Chubb), HMS Grouper, HMS Herring, HMS Pike, HMS Whiting & HMS Bream. HMS Haddock doesn't have an "otherships" link, nor do some others, but I don't know if this is deliberate or accidental.
 * Bream, Haddock and Grouper are unique names, were there any others? HMS Chub raises an interesting issue, Colledge has her as the former USS Eagle, but that article indicates she was renamed Finch after her capture. The Finch listed in Colledge was apparently USS Growler, but our wikipedia article has Growler becoming HMS Hamilton, but no ship with that name is listed as in service in the right period. There are a few other inconsistencies, clearly someone somewhere is confusing some records. I'll try to investigate this a little more in the near future.
 * User:Acad Ronin wrote the Ballahoo class schooner articles, and I know Rif has been involved. Given they are the smallest men-of-war imaginable, it is no surprise that the historical record is weak.  I'll amend the articles to remove the "otherships" from those whose names were only used once.  Shem (talk) 10:59, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
 * The full list of Ballahoo class schooner names is: HMS Ballahoo, HMS Barracouta, HMS Capelin, HMS Kingfish, HMS Grouper, HMS Haddock, HMS Herring, HMS Mackerel, HMS Pike, HMS Pilchard, HMS Snapper, HMS Whiting, HMS Bream, HMS Chub, HMS Cuttle, HMS Porgey, HMS Mullett & HMS Tang


 * HMS Thisbe - more than just HMS Thisbe (1783)?
 * HMS Valeur - ditto for HMS Valeur (1759)?
 * HMS Cuckoo? - Name ship for her class of schooners. All the Cuckoo class schooners have articles, as do all the Ballahoo class schooners, except for HMS Kingfish.Acad Ronin (talk)
 * HMS Placentia - odd name! I think Charles Herbert (Royal Navy officer) was her captain, in about 1793, but I'd be grateful to know how many vessels I'm dealing with over that period. At least three for sure, as Hepper has court martial records for their losses. However, National Maritime Museum records indicate a possible fourth, a cutter. All are apparently named after a place in Newfoundland.Acad Ronin (talk) 01:16, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
 * HMS Banterer
 * HMS Minerve, HMS Concorde & HMS Thalia - wikilinks fixed by Acad, so now low priority
 * HMS Surinam & HMS Amaranthe? I can't find any more than one each at a glance.
 * Please have a look at HMS Pelorus - thanks
 * Please have a look at HMS Esperance - currently a redirect to HMS Esperance (1795).
 * Could you please have a look at HMS Grinder (currently about a gunboat) and HMS Jaseur? Thanks.
 * HMS Privet - all the linking articles currently talk about a WWI Q-ship.
 * HMS Doterel - I know of HMS Doterel (1860) and HMS Doterel (1880). Are there any more?
 * HMS Reynard & HMS Conflict
 * HMS Research - currently a redirect, but I know of HMS Research (1846), HMS Research (1863) and HMS Research (1888) at least.
 * Please check HMS Leven for accuracy - very much appreciated. - All three ships are there, though I can't offhand vouch for the accuracy of some of the details, which should probably be moved to the ship articles themselves as and when they are written.
 * Could you have another look at HMS Grinder? I've moved the article that originally sat there to HMS Grinder (1809) and started the shipindex page. I've added Colledge as a reference, although I haven't got a copy, merely to save you the effort of adding it.
 * HMS Vestal - it's not shown in the online Colledge.
 * HMS Mallard

Note
I find that I can read sections of Colledge at Google Books. This should help to reduce my requests for your help. May I take this opportunity to thank you for all the work you've done at my request over the last couple of years? Yours, Shem (talk) 16:04, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
