1A="Resolution was built by Palmer Shipbuilding and Iron Company,[1] at a cost of £875,522, plus £78,295 for guns." Perhaps this should be made clear in the info box as well?

Done


1B=You might want to add the British English tag to the talk page to notify editors; not required, just a thought.

Done


…"was recommissioned into the Special Service Division…" The SSD stands as a redlink, is it necessary, or perhaps could it be linked to an existing article? This link reappears later as well.

I reckon it should be left—a lot of ship articles like this include red-links


"...near the Tongue Lightship on 15 July 1906." The Tongue Lightship is redlinked, same questions asked for it.

So, looking at Lightvessels in the United Kingdom, I think this was probably based on Tongue Sands in the Thames Estuary, but the source does not elaborate on this. I reckon it's best left red-linked, so that if someone does create articles on lightvessels, then it will link appropriately.


1 com= A few minor issues and questions here
2A= Excellent here
2B= Here as well
2C= "...in combined manoeuvres in 1906…" Where exactly, and in what context? Any info?

For the reasons given in the Tounge Lightship query above, I am not sure I should elaborate on this more. The sources don't give any more information.



2com= Just one question
3A= Certainly does so
3B="In the view of R. A. Burt…" Whom is that?

Elaborated that he's a maritime historian; he wrote quite a few books on Royal Navy topics, but doesn't have an article


"...Resolution was sold as scrap for £35,650 to F. Rijsdijk…" And who is that?

The sources don't elaborate on who he is. In my opinion, he is likely Frank Rijsdijk, "director of ship recycling", but I have no reliable sources to support that assumption.


3com= Two unknown names here
4= Yes
4com=  Pass
5= Pass
5com= Pass
6A= Great
6B= Super
6com= Pass

Excellent job on this article! One in a long line. Just a few minor obstacles to pass through before this one is passed. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 21:30, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I will get on this today. Thank you, --Noswall59 (talk) 09:28, 7 May 2016 (UTC).[reply]
