This article is in good shape. A few comments:

  • suggest "Linois was the lead ship of [[Linois-class cruiser|her class]] of protected cruisers"
    • Done
  • suggest "The Linois-class cruisers[[ship class|class]] were ordered"
    • Done
  • as you've done with other protected cruisers, you could add the deck armor to the lead
    • Done
  • was there any influence of the Jeune École doctrine on the construction program of which she was a part?
    • Ropp doesn't mention them in that section (and only an oblique reference to a rejection of their ideas in his account of the plan "It provided no commerce-raiders...and no money for coaling stations." - and a few pages earlier, he notes that the officers in positions of power at the time were opponents of the Jeune Ecole
  • you could add her range into the infobox
    • Done
  • "the two countries were poor at the time" as the Ottoman Empire was an empire (so was France)
    • Done
  • link Toulon
    • Done
  • File:French cruiser Linois at anchor.jpg looks like it could use PD-UK as well (and transition to Commons) as it was published prior to 1926 and was therefore PD on the URAA date
    • Yeah, but we don't know the author - don't we need that for its UK (or possibly French - I'd assume it was Bar or Bougault who took it) status?

That's all I could find to quibble about. Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 01:25, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article is well-written, verifiable using reliable sources, covers the subject well, is neutral and stable, contains no plagiarism, and is illustrated by acceptably licensed images with appropriate captions. Passing. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 09:19, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
