Comments[edit]

  • "Right elevation and deck plan as depicted in Brassey's Naval Annual 1923" perhaps "Right elevation and deck plan as depicted in Brassey's Naval Annual 1923"?
  • link Otranto Barrage as the "blockade of the Austro-Hungarian Navy in the Adriatic Sea"?
  • "reach their designed speed" -> "reach their top speed"? I'm not familiar with such a thing as 'designed speed'
  • "anti-torpedo boat defense" maybe just "torpedo boat defense"? I don't think the anti- is needed
  • "was fully committed to building" -> "was committed to building"?
  • "the ships returned to Jamestown " had they arrived previously?
    • Almost certainly, but not explicitly mentioned in the source.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:35, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • our article uses caps for "Naval Review"
    • That would only be appropriate if it were a proper name.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:35, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "not the leisurely 6 knots" could do without 'leisurely'?
    • No, it's important to emphasize that Léon Gambetta was basically just puttering along.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:35, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "and to rebuild the army" maybe specify what army, or say "rebuild their army"?
  • "they decided to occupy the" -> "they occupied the"?
  • what is the "Salonica Front"?
  • "across the bridge over the Corinth Canal on 28 April to interfere" so was it just for one day or for the broader "early 1917"?
  • link Toulon?

That's it from me- all minor stuff, and open to discussion/disagreement. Eddie891 Talk Work 18:24, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching all of these; just about all of them needed to be clarified.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:35, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sturmvogel 66, I've spotchecked the sources, to the extent that I can access them, and see no issues with reliability, comprehensiveness, prose, copyvio, and neutrality. Happy to promote- Nice work! Eddie891 Talk Work 23:26, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
