I'll give this a review. Wizardman 18:08, 23 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Here are the issues I found:

  • A little odd to me, but why is both the author and source unknown for the image? If everything's unknown how are we sure that image is the ship in question?
    • Probably a fair point - replaced with a photo with a source.
  • "Obsolescent by 1873," I'd say Obsolete instead just to make it sound slightly less passive, though if that makes the sentence technically wrong then you can skip this.
    • I think obsolescent is better, technically.
  • " She proved to be very wet forward, " maybe it's obvious and im just missing it but i'm not sure what that means.
    • See if how I reworded it makes it clearer.
  • " in attempt to draw out the Italians," in an attempt
    • Fixed
  • " On 16 July, Persano took the Italian fleet, with twelve ironclads, out of Ancona, bound for the island of Lissa, where they arrived on the 18th" can this be reworded with fewer commas? Feels like it's overkill though maybe it's just my preference. Also you repeat that sentence twice in a row (i'd remove the end-section one and keep the start-section one personally)
    • Should be better now - have a look.
  • " main base at Pola and Venice. " main bases
    • Fixed

I'll put the article on hold and will pass when the issues are fixed. Wizardman 18:43, 23 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

How did this get past GA review when the masthead image has no licence and is now up for CSD? Andy Dingley (talk) 09:09, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

I forgot to add the template - it's been addressed. Parsecboy (talk) 10:07, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
