I'll be reviewing this soon. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:01, 12 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Found only a few missing commas and a few awkward phrases, but they are sufficiently minor.

" On 31 July 1942, the cruiser was attacked by the British submarine HMS Traveller south of Premantura but all of the torpedoes missed." - Doesn't say how many torpedoes were launched against the Niobe, if a number is known, please include it.

Since the Niobi switched nations, is there any information on the Yugoslavian or Italian crews which ran them for WWII? Its not required, but it would be nice to know to what fleet they were assigned or the orders.

Other then that, I will pass this. On hold to address the tiny issue more out of procedure rather then anything else. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:07, 14 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

All Rohwer says about the number of torpedoes is that five of the 17 that Traveller launched while on patrol failed, but this includes attacks on three other ships as well. Apart from Dalmacija's service as a gunnery training ship, I haven't been able to find anything substantial on the ship's service with Yugoslavia or Italy.

Very well, was a curiosity. The attack failed, the is the important point. I'll pass this now as it is a trivial content highlight and doesn't impact the article negatively. Overall, good work.ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:09, 18 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
