Talk:Japanese cruiser Tokiwa

Doubts as for date

It does not seem possible, that she was laid down in January 1898 and launched on 6 July the same year. One Russian book says she was laid down on 6 January 1897 ((А.С. Александров, С.А. Балакин: „Асама” и другие. Японские броненосные крейсера программы 1895-1896г.), series Morskaya Kampania 1/2006 Pibwl ←« 00:31, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

You are correct - there was a typo on the date, which is now fixed. --MChew (talk) 06:54, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Interesting, that 1898 appears in very many publications... Pibwl ←« 00:23, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   One dupe link in the lead

   Watch ENGVAR, I see armor and armour

   I'd probably pipe the link to Steregushchiy so it matches the other ships mentioned in the article.

   "Tokiwa was third of six when..." - I know you're talking about Togo's line, but most will not.

   Added "in line", but I'm not sure if I should clarify that it's of the 2nd Division. What do you think?

   You could also pipe line of battle in - though I saw another reference to this earlier in the article, so the link should probably go there.

   Done.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:09, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Probably ought to give some context on the arrival of the 2nd Pacific Squadron - otherwise, readers will assume it's the ships from Port Arthur and Vladivostok

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, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   File:Japanese cruiser Tokiwa.jpg - need a source for this

   Could find a source on Google image, but I'm not to concerned about this since it's obviously a postcard.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

Thanks for looking this over; now I've got to go and make changes to all the other articles from which I copy-pasted major sections! I think that I've dealt with all your comments, let me know if there's anything that I missed.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:03, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
