This article is in pretty good shape.

  • The displacement in the text and infobox doesn't match.
  • probably worth specifying that the secondary guns were in single mounts
  • After introducing BS as an abbreviation, suggest referring to 1st BS.
  • suggest linking mobilisation
    • Excellent idea!
  • link Home Fleet at first mention
    • Linked in the lede
  • link dreadnought at 16 dreadnoughts
    • Isn't this covered in the link for dreadnought battleships in the lede? Or is this just different enough?
  • the sentence beginning During this foray appears to be out of sequence
    • Moved earlier in the para, but I kinda think that it breaks the flow up a bit, what do you think?
      • I think it flows ok.
  • Agincourt should probably be linked
    • Good catch.
  • she was sold
  • images are all appropriately licensed and captioned.

HE shell use at Jutland ?

[edit]

"One of her high-explosive (HE) shells penetrated through the upper superstructure and caused minor splinter damage. The second HE shell burst on hitting the upper hull armour,.." ? She would have been firing armour-piercing, not HE at naval targets ? Rcbutcher (talk) 06:21, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
