Comments:
- I did some light ce; anything you dislike, feel free to revert it.
- I think one paragraph for the lead is fine, but I think it's possible to add one or two sentences covering its design and construction (right now, the lead does not discuss this part of the article).
- I've added in a sentence briefly describing their design. Let me know if you'd like more details.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:35, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- "They were intended, together with other warships, to break the Federal blockade of Confederate coastal cities and to hold some Northern cities for ransom." → Out of curiosity, how do ships hold cities for ransom? (Attack, and demand payment to leave?)
- Not entirely sure, but I suspect "gimme money, or I'll start bombarding"
- Otherwise, image checks out, article is stable, and language is clear and concise.
- The lead looks good now, given the information available in the article. At some point, if ever, it would be nice if that "ransom" thing is clarified. JonCatalán(Talk) 19:47, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
