I still remember you doing the same favor to me, months ago. Now here I am to review your article. I will begin review in a while. WikiCopter (♠ • ♣ • ♥ • ♦ • simple • commons • lost • cvu • onau) 04:42, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

- Two of your images need or have but need more descriptive alt text (see here). WikiCopter (♠ • ♣ • ♥ • ♦ • simple • commons • lost • cvu • onau) 04:51, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
- Before she was sunk, Fortune scored a single hit on Oldenburg with her 4 inch guns. [...] In the darkness, Fortune and Ardent were sunk and the remaining four ships were scattered.. Something is redundant. You said Fortune was sunk twice (or twice you said Fortune was sunk). WikiCopter (♠ • ♣ • ♥ • ♦ • simple • commons • lost • cvu • onau) 04:53, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
  - Thanks for reviewing the article. I fixed both problems you pointed out. Parsecboy (talk) 14:41, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
    - Sorry to jump in on this review, I have a couple of comments (not very major). I added them to your talkpage, but I think they might have got lost amongst subsequent posts. The diff is here: [1]. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 23:44, 18 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
      - Good work, passed. WikiCopter (♠ • ♣ • ♥ • ♦ • simple • commons • lost • cvu • onau) 17:09, 26 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
