This article is in good shape. I have a few comments:

• suggest "The Lord Nelson class consisted of a pair of pre-dreadnought battleships"
• weren't Goeben and Breslau German-crewed Turkish ships at this point?
  • Not certain about the crewing situation, but I certainly need to use their Turkish names
• suggest stating where the the ships would be breaking out from, after "from breaking out into the Mediterranean"
• the actual attempted breakout was the Battle of Imbros, wasn't it? link, and change to January 1918, not mid-1918?
  • Good catch
• suggest "Pioneering naval gunnery developments by Captain..."
• "able to use the drydocks" if that is what is meant?
• "of the preceding King Edward VII class would be required."
• "10-inch (254 mm) guns proposed"
• the length and beam conversions don't match between the body and infobox
• the deep load displacement doesn't match between the body and infobox
• suggest lk=on for the power in the body to link kW
• the 3-pounder guns don't match between the body and infobox
• you could drop the 12 in conversions in the infobox after the guns, except for the barbette armour upper range, also the second 8 in one
  • I've always left the duplicates in the armor section as it looks funny to me if they're not all consistently converted
• suggest "as the waterline belt being submerged at deep load"
• "then a-building to all her "?
• I think Vice-Admiral should be decapped, as it is not a title of a person
  • Indeed
• suggest "and she participated in the Ooccupation"
• it would be helpful to have something that indicated where File:HMS Lord Nelson 1906 midel section-EN.svg gets its info from. BTW, this is the best diagram of ship armour I've ever seen in an article, very informative.
  • There's an equivalent diagram in Dreadnought. My sources only cover actual armour thicknesses; I have no idea where the info on hull plate and bulkheads thicknesses came from. I'm hoping that won't be a real problem whenever I send this up to ACR.
    • it might do, generally we need sources for maps and diagrams AFAIK. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:01, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
• the other pics are fine.
• ship breaking is overlinked in the lead, amidships and vice-admiral in the body
  • Sigh, I'd have sworn that I ran the duplink checker before I nominated this one!

Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:48, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your usual thorough review. I hope that all of my fixes work for you.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:53, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
