I will do this one as well. Zawed (talk) 04:55, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Repeated use of "...she was..."
- Fixed, as in the other article.

Design/Infobox

Short/Long tons conversion missing in the infobox for normal displacement.
- It's there
The link to propulsion is referred to as plural in the infobox but ship only has one engine.
- Fixed
Inconsistency in number of boilers.
- Fixed

Service history

"Principe di Carignano member of her class..." > "Her sister ship Principe di Carignano was the only member of her class"?
- Fixed
"Italia-classs" > "Italia-classes"?
- You'd have thought I'd have caught that when I was writing the articles.

References

Sondhaus (2001) not used. Also, this means no need for (1994) to differentiate the two Sondhaus refs.
- Good point.

Although short, this article reads well, is fully cited and neutral in tone. Despite its brevity, it has reasonable coverage of the subject which had a limited career. The tags on the images appear appropriate. I will check back on progress in a few days. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 05:06, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Changes look good, passing as GA. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 05:33, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
