Most of these naval skirmishes did not take place in this time frame. Ingraham incident took place in May 1835; San Felipe incident took place in Sept 1835; the Natchez incident, Brazos River, and Galveston Harbor skirmishes took place in 1837. The article for the latter specifically states that it

I'm removed the inclusion of the naval skirmishes. Historians do not consider these to be battles of the Texas Revolution. The Battle of Campeche occurred in 1843, which means it was not part of the Texas Revolution (historians consider that to have ended April 21, 1836). The "Battle of Galveston

Agree with Karanacs here about needing RS's that specifically say that the skirmishes in question are specifically clearly counted as part of the Texas Revolution in some way. That would be best done with sources that specifically and clearly state that the skirmishes were a part of the TR, as per

I have seen says the Texas Revolution lasted from Oct 5, 1835 through April 21, 1836. Even the Handbook of Texas article on the Invincible does not claim it was part of the Texas Revolution. Please provide sources to back up your assertions that these should be included.
707:- The arguments above from user Karanacs seem persuasive. Although I do have one question: is there any article or navBox template that covers the naval incidents? Or are they so few and unrelated that they do not warrant a dedicated article on the "naval war"? -- 433:, and many others. A search of Google books and Google scholar reveals that there are zero entries for "Battle of Brazos Santiago" or "Battle of Brazos River", implying that there has been little to no scholarly discussion of these.
