  • Done. I have one further question though. Not sure of the consensus you guys have on this, but would it be good to redirect French ship Franklin (1797) to this, seeing as how it's the same ship? Not sure if the separate articles are justified, especially since this one explains the French career anyway. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 18:21, 27 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
