"amidships" is a duplicate link
- Fixed.
no alt text for image (not required)
did she have a name when she was a merchant ship?
- Not that I'm aware of - Gröner usually gives the new name if it was available. It's not in Conway's or any other source I've been able to track down.
"240 mm (9.4 in) thick amidships"
- Fixed.
what are "Marine type boilers" and should they be linked to an article?
- Some kind of naval boiler, I'd guess they were manufactured by one of the Imperial dockyards (such as KWW), but Gröner isn't specific.
"The lengthened hull, which improved her hydrodynamic shape, and the improved boilers increased her speed by a full knot..."
- What's the problem here? It's saying that the longer hull and the improved boilers increased her speed.
  - I thought it would improve the flow of the sentence, but it's not a war winner.
this might be an Americanism, but should "through the end of the war" be "through to the end of the war"?
- Fixed.

Just a couple of points to be addressed and she's ready for promotion. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 05:49, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
