GA review (see here for criteria) (see here for this contributor's history of GA reviews)

1. It is reasonably well written:

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable:

   Pass Offline references accepted in good faith. Cursory check of Google Books shows references that back up source material here.

3. It is broad in its coverage:

   Pass Only spot a few suggestions.

   • "Between 1942 and 1943 she remained in Leningrad, participating only in defense against air raids. " -- Was she part of a local garrison or was there some reason she was deemed unworthy of going to sea?
   • "The destroyer transferred to the Leningrad Trade Port on 4 September and expended 127 130 mm shells between 21 and 23 September" -- This and the preceding lines aren't clear if these were defensive actions or the ship was involved in some kind of offensive; though I imagine this is immaterial to the average reader.
   • Last graph, 4th Fleet and Baltic Fleet could add some general details about what they were up to in that time or the area where they operated as would add some balance to the scant details during the 12 postwar years of service, but this is only preference.

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy:

   Pass Multiple references given an appropriate balance between them.

5. It is stable:

   Pass No problems there.

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate:

   Pass One image tagged PD where appropriate.

7. Other:

   Pass I see nothing significant enough to hold the article up at this point, so just providing some outside suggestions. Well done as always. —Ed!^(talk) 03:52, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
