Well constructed, will come back shorty. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 05:41, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

• Lead;
  • the remaining ship was scrapped -> the remainder was scrapped
  • Suggest removing "now" from "now renamed Profintern", because it is not the present, a bit awkward.
    • Remainder is generally plural.
• Section 1;
  • 1912–16 to 1912–1916 per MOS:DATERANGE
  • 9,660,000 rubles; Perhaps add a conversion to USD for better understanding, also for 8,300,000 rubles
    • It's almost impossible to convert warship costs into modern dollars as they're capital costs and have massively exceeded inflation.
  • four geared^ref Curtis-AEG-Vulkan steam turbines; this is bit confusing, there is a chance that user may take it for steam turbine having four gears instead the count of four turbines used. Reword it to avoid confusion.
    • I see your point, but I've been using this standard wording for years and nobody's ever questioned it before. Mainly, I think, that turbines with four gears would be written with a hyphen, forex: four-geared steam turbines.
  • In the infobox, it is mentioned that the boilers were water-tube boilers, mention the same in prose also.
    • Yarrow boilers are water-tube boilers so I've fixed the infobox.
  • maximum elevation was limited to 75°; + or -
  • Conversion for 76 millimeters and 25 millimeters
    • Both converted on first use.
  • Inconsistency in usage; 25-millimeter, 76 millimeters, 130-millimeter, 20 millimeters also some case exist in later paras
    • The hyphen is used for compound adjectives like 130-millimeter gun, or 25-millimeter armor plate, not for armor plates 25 millimeters thick, etc.
• Section 2; Could links be made to the sister ship articles.
  • • Sure.
• Section 3;
  • Link Reval
    • Linked in the table above.
  • After "her overhaul in 1939", there is an unnecessary space before the reference.
  • 1941—42 to 1941–1942, en dash should be used for date ranges.
• Section 5; Rohwer, Jürgen (2005) and Whitley, M. J. (1995) are never used for citations.
• Infobox (out of GA criteria); Change ranges per MOS:DATERANGE
