• The installed power on the infobox differs from the number given from her sea trials.
  • Good catch.
• Was Serebrennikov captain of the ship for her entire service? It isn't immediately clear.
  • Not sure, depends on when he was appointed, but it's probable.
• "While exact figures are not available for Borodino, it is probable that the ship was approximately 1,700 long tons (1,700 t) overweight..." -- did this slow her down?
  • Uncertain, but note that she was designed for 18 knots, but only reached 16.2 during trials.
• You note in the lead that they had been bound for Port Arthur but changed directions when it was captured. I don't see this in the body of the article, and it would need a reference.
  • Done.
• You mention Captain Pakenham as an observer. Where was he during the battle? Aboard a Russian ship or a Japanese one? On land? It would help to clarify his reliability as a witness.
  • Clarified.
• Dup link tool returns two results: both "sister ship."
  • Fixed. Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 04:46, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
• External links show no problems. There are also no dab links.

Not a lot of major points. It's got a little less detail than many other ship GAs but this is satisfactorily explained in the prose. I'll place the article on hold pending said improvements. —Ed!^(talk) 23:20, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Great. All of my questions have been addressed. I'm passing the article. Good work! —Ed!^(talk) 12:27, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
