Clean-up and Wikification required[edit]

This article doesn't read very encyclopedically and is sorely needing wkification. I don't know anything much about the battle or the wars in general or I would have a go. Dabbler 14:56, 6 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to have been copied from a deeply pro-protestant anticatolic source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.22.206.11 (talk) 18:35, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio problems[edit]

It appears that an early change to the article introduced widespread copyright issues from Garrett Mattingly's "The Armada"; a search through pages 154-157 shows most of the material has been directly lifted. I've reverted as I can't see any easy way of sorting this without going back to scratch on it. Hchc2009 (talk) 18:17, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded the article with a translation from French Wikipedia, but would be grateful if someone could check it over. --Bermicourt (talk) 07:12, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
