Expedition[edit]

The article says:

On June 23, 1804, whilst the Fort Diamond was on a provisioning expedition

How the bloody hell does an island go on an expedition? That's like saying my house went coal mining. It makes no sense. - 83.100.233.169 (talk) 01:46, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Details matter. Diamond Rock couldn't go on an expedition; the schooner Fort Diamond (note the italics), could and did. Acad Ronin (talk) 06:24, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This was brought up in 2013. Unless there is more discussion/clarification, I think this paragraph should be struck.Name Omitted (talk) 18:08, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why? ... because some might not see the itallics? Seems quite clear - the schooner was on an expedition, not the rock. Vsmith (talk) 19:15, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No longer commissioned[edit]

The uninhabited rock is no longer commissioned. The source it references is erroneous reading/translation ; which indicated it in the past sense and states that it is French today.
