I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:19, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

• One DAB for Pola.
  • Fixed, actually a dupe link
• Clarify that infobox stats are for as built.
  • Added a note
• Howzabout feet and inches for metric conversions?
  • You'd think I'd remember that at some point.
• Clarify that the early guns were smoothbores in the design section, although this would be more appropriately named description.
  • Done
• Fix your rounding for battery armor in the main body and for the 7-inch guns and the 26 cm gun.
  • Should all be fixed
• launched no 24 typo and link launched
  • Done
• Link commissioned on first use and breech-loader.
  • Done
• What do you mean "converging fire"?
  • Dunno exactly what Wilson was talking about - he doesn't really explain what he meant and there isn't a whole lot of context to go on. I assume he meant something along the lines of raking fire, but I figured I ought to use the phrase he did to avoid over-interpreting it.
• Wilson revised and expanded his earlier books in the two volume set Battleships in Action originally published in the '20s and republished by the Naval Institute Press/Conways in '95. Might be worthwhile to get a hold of a copy (really all you need is volume 1 as that covers everything up to the Russo-Japanese War) and see if there were any significant changes made to his earlier account.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:00, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
  • Probably worth doing if I ever try to get these articles in shape for ACR/FAC. Thanks for reviewing the article. Parsecboy (talk) 12:25, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
