Broad in its coverage:

Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.

With a slight modification made to a single sentence, I am satisfied that the article's tone is neutral and appropriate. "A wiki of beauty is a joy forever." Seriously. That's how long it'd take to read! (talk) 02:55, 8 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

Since its creation in 2010, the article has not been the subject of any disruptive editing. "Carry me down, carry me down; carry me down into the wiki!" (talk) 01:16, 27 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

In paragraph 2 of the section "Construction and career", it says, "Latouche-Tréville was sent to Souda Bay, Crete, on 17 March 1897 at the outbreak of the Greco-Turkish War to 24 June." I'm a bit confused by the way this is worded. Is the 24th of June the date when the cruiser's mission at Souda Bay concluded? If so, it should probably be written more like "...at the outbreak of the Greco-Turkish War, until 24 June." "A wiki of beauty is a joy forever." Seriously. That's how long it'd take to read!
