Reviewer: Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:13, 17 August 2010 (UTC) GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria[reply]

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    King should be capitalized. Crew-member shouldn't be hyphenated. Isn't u-boat usually capitalized?
    All fixed. Parsecboy (talk) 02:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    There are a couple of awkward tags that need to be addressed.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:39, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Fixed. Parsecboy (talk) 12:09, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    B. MoS compliance:
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    Link sister ship. Arriving in Rio in 1915?! What time does the article use?
    Linked, typo fixed, and note added. Parsecboy (talk) 02:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    B. Focused:
    One minute 3rd and 4th LCS, use British terminology for their units, please, are being fired upon, next thing it's Defence and Warrior. Need some sort of transition like 1st Cruiser Squadron attempted to engage Wiesbaden, etc.
    Fixed. Parsecboy (talk) 02:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
    Jutland map is way too small to be legible; try 500px. Can you add the diagram from the class article; it would help clarify the layout of the main armament.
    Done. Parsecboy (talk) 02:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:

Thanks...

[edit]

...to all who worked on this FA. This is a great article! --Temp87 (talk) 14:58, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Number of hits suffered at Jutland

[edit]

The lead states "during which she was hit once"; the article states "Kaiser was hit twice in quick succession by heavy-caliber shells". I am inclined to believe the second statement, which is sourced to Campbell. Which I don't have access to to check. Could someone check and change the lead to "twice"? (Or alter the main text appropriately.) Thanks. Gog the Mild (talk) 16:11, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, good catch! Parsecboy (talk) 17:00, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Instant response :-) , impressive. Just demonstrating that I am paying attention. Gog the Mild (talk) 17:12, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
