message: Story of the Battle of Cape St. Vincent is reproduced almost exactly in this. Is it kosher? Dale662 (talk) 14:38, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

message: *Noting that the article only included 24 of the Spanish ships of the line present during this battle, although all references were to 27 such vessels being there, I have added the three missing ships (plus five smaller vessels - a brig and four armed merchantmen - not previously included).

message: Hello. I am turning my attention to this article, and intend over the next few weeks to work up a revised, expanded and sourced new draft of this article in my user space before pasting it in here. For examples of the success of this method, please see Battle of the Nile, Battle of Camperdown, Battle of Groix or Battle of the Basque Roads, alongside many others on my user page. I will branch off the order of battle into its own article, and the whole is intended to sit within a new overview article which covers the British Blockade of Cádiz between 1795 and 1802, which compliments the recently completed Mediterranean campaign of 1793-1796. It is not unknown for me to become suddenly busy in RL and have to put these projects on hiatus, but this is an important battle and so I hope to do justice to its significance in a newly developed page. As always, send any questions, comments or complaints to me.--Jackyd101 (talk) 00:03, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

message: The article Sir William Parker, 1st Baronet, of Harburn states:
I presume that this sentence is based on his account of the battle that tends to underplay Nelson's part in the battle, which is commonly based on Nelson's own account (as is quoted in this article). Perhapes someone with more knowledge of the battle than I, and who has read secondary sources that asses the conflicting primary accounts (which I believe are over the interpretation of the facts rather than the facts themselves -- eg: "double boarding is a remarkably unusual feat of arms worthy of emphasise", or "capturing a battered hulk that was unable to disengage with a crew ready to surrender was not shuch a feat of arms and should not be idolised") can discuss if there is a balanced POV over this issue in this article.
