• Section 1; sentence 1; "...launch of the French Gloire, the first ironclad warship", first ironclad of the world or Europe or France, mention that clearly.
  • Done
• Section 1; Better mention who is "Kaiser Franz Josef I", something like "Emperor of Austria" etc.
  • Added
• Section 1.1; para 1; beam measured 13.94 meters (45 ft 9 in); but in the infobox it is 14 m (45 ft 11 in)
  • A legacy of when the article was based on Silverstone's less precise work - good catch.
• Section 1.1; para 1; they displaced 2,824 long tons (2,869 t) at normal load, and 3,110 long tons (3,160 t) at deep load; but in the infobox it is 2,779 long tons (2,824 t)
  • Probably the same as above
• Is it possible to add the information about the later guns that were installed in 1867, in the infobox.
  • Added
• Section 1.14; para 3; The frigates broadside ironclads; this looks a bit confusing. I think it is to "The frigates were broadside ironclads".
  • Yeah, the "were" was missing.
• All the three images lack dates on their description pages. Please add approx. dates as I suggested on Talk:Kaiser Max-class ironclad (1862)/GA1.
  • Added to all three
• Better to link "Prussia" and "Italy" on their first mention.
  • Linked Prussia, but Italy is already linked in the design section.
