Could consider creating Seal II to redirect here as that seems to be the common name after the initial statement that it was a Supermarine aircraft.

Help! Seal II already redirects to another article, and I've no idea how to proceed, apart from adding a hatnote to the other article (which I've done). Amitchell125 (talk) 06:11, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think that's sufficient for now. There could be a requested move discussion over which of the two relatively obscure targets is the most common, but it's probably a lot more effort than it's worth. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 06:54, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a link for piston engine we could use?

I've used Aero engine, as the above link goes to a very general article. Amitchell125 (talk) 06:18, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"by the Royal Air Force (RAF). " overlinked and put the (RAF) after the first instance.
"In 1921 a Seal II was sold to the Imperial Japanese" sold the Japanese before the RAF took delivery of it? Crikey.

Hopefully now all sorted. I got confused here, mainly as nearly all the sources inerchange Seal II with Seagull (the name was changed, but only in July 1921). Amitchell125 (talk) 18:02, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Having said that, it says number built 1, so how did that work?
"produced by Supermarine's " overlinked.
Link "fleet spotter" in background section, just as you have in the lead.
Oh you have, but not first time.
"this happened to because" not quite right?
"company's Commercial Amphibian entered" overlinked.
" R.J. Mitchell, later to become " already linked and previously (twice) referred to as Reginald rather than R.J. (and our article is at R. J. Mitchell).
Everything you linked in the lead, link first time in the main body, e.g. biplane.
"Supermarine Channel II" put the II inside the piped link.
"to [13] Kasuimiguara, " odd place to drop that ref in!
"an RAF Display" what is this and why is it capital D?

Sentence amended, the Display (called this from 1925) was an annual event. AM

That's all I have. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 14:47, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
