This looks like a short but well-written article by Sturmvogel 66 on a French submarine that looks quite pioneering. I will start a review shortly. simongraham (talk) 19:19, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
Comments
[edit]- Suggest adding that Z was the was the only French submarine to be fitted with four sets of diving planes to the lead.
- The infobox says that the electric motor is 180hp but the body states that this was the output under trial. The article states that the diesel engine achieved 181hp but was rated at 190hp. Please clarify.
- The sources don't give the designed rating of the electrical motor, so the trial figure is all I can provide. The diesel was designed to make 190 hp, but only reached 181 for some unknown reason.
- Is there any detail about the batteries that can be added to Background and description?
- The only info available is that they were positioned in the two center compartments
- The boat is given the pronoun "it" apart from "her conning tower". Please make consistent.
- The infobox says the boat was completed in 1905?, but this is not supported by the body.
- Link crew and diesel engine in the body.
- It's a short article; I see no need to duplicate a link given in the lede
- Remove duplicate link to propeller shaft.
- Spot checks of Roberts, 2021 and Smigielski, 1985, confirm that they cover the topic.
- Suggest it may be worth looking at Lyle Cummin's works on diesel engines (such as Diesels for the First Stealth Weapon and Diesel's Engine[1]]).
@Sturmvogel 66: This looks very close to meeting all the Good Article criteria to me. Please take a look at my comments above. simongraham (talk) 19:31, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review, see if my changes are acceptable.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:18, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Sturmvogel 66: That all looks great. I have added a couple of wikilinks, but otherwise happy to pass for as a GA. simongraham (talk) 09:34, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
