Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 20:40, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    • Design - Do we have an article for the 1907 Warship Supplement Program? If not, is it a viable redlink?
    • No article and I think that an article is really only possible if you read Japanese.
    • Construction, "the battleship Mikasa had a fire was started by a sailor" - fire that was, I think.
    • Construction, "Kawachi at Yokosuka." - Kawachi was at, I think.
    • Construction, Battle of Tsingtao should be linked on the first occurrence, not the second.
    • Linked in the lede
    • Construction, do we have links for the First Squadron and Second Squadron?
    • No, and I'm not even sure that I can put together what ships were in them when.
    • Construction, "would delay the construction of one battlecruiser by over a year." Why would the salvage of one ship delay the construction of another?
    • Limited resources like money, drydock space and skilled labor are my guesses. The firmest of these is drydock space, I think, but even that's not noted in any of my sources.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    File:Kawachi.jpg needs a source. There appear to be a bunch of pictures on navweaps - perhaps one of them is the same as this?
    • Added.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    A few prose niggles and one image question. Otherwise a nice little article. Dana boomer (talk) 21:31, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
