I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:19, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • One DAB for Pola.
    • Fixed, actually a dupe link
  • Clarify that infobox stats are for as built.
    • Added a note
  • Howzabout feet and inches for metric conversions?
    • You'd think I'd remember that at some point.
  • Clarify that the early guns were smoothbores in the design section, although this would be more appropriately named description.
    • Done
  • Fix your rounding for battery armor in the main body and for the 7-inch guns and the 26 cm gun.
    • Should all be fixed
  • launched no 24 typo and link launched
    • Done
  • Link commissioned on first use and breech-loader.
    • Done
  • What do you mean "converging fire"?
    • Dunno exactly what Wilson was talking about - he doesn't really explain what he meant and there isn't a whole lot of context to go on. I assume he meant something along the lines of raking fire, but I figured I ought to use the phrase he did to avoid over-interpreting it.
  • Wilson revised and expanded his earlier books in the two volume set Battleships in Action originally published in the '20s and republished by the Naval Institute Press/Conways in '95. Might be worthwhile to get a hold of a copy (really all you need is volume 1 as that covers everything up to the Russo-Japanese War) and see if there were any significant changes made to his earlier account.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:00, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
