Grabbing this for a review. Miyagawa (talk) 20:22, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Description: I'm being really picky, but I'm getting worried this might be a straight pass! :) - link "anti-aircraft armament" to Anti-aircraft warfare
- Good idea.
Construction and career: You've linked to Naval Base Simon's Town on the second occasion it is mentioned.
- You sure? I'm only seeing it once, although there a mention of Simon's Town at the end of the previous para.
Change "It was obsolete by 1972 and was taken out of service on 15 March." to start with "Natal" instead of "It", only because you mentioned another ship more recently. I didn't find it particularly confusing, but some might.
- Agreed.

That's the lot. Nice job, and a ship with an interesting history. Never heard of one sinking an enemy submarine while being worked up before! That can't be all that common, I'd think. Miyagawa (talk) 20:33, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is, especially only hours out of the shipyard. Only thing that would be even more exceptional would be to sink one on trials, but I can't remember if that's ever happened. Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:17, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Happy to pass, I re-read the Simon's Town bit and yeah, I misread the previous mention as the navy base. Miyagawa (talk) 22:32, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
