I'll take a look at this shortly. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 00:24, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Prelim

 * No relevant duplicated links
 * Image correctly licensed
 * Article is stable
 * Earwig reports copyvio unlikely

Lede and infobox

 * "upon its entry to the war"
 * Changed as suggested. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * "All three were scrapped after the war, and stricken in 1919." this suggests they were scrapped and then stricken, which I don't think would be the case? Suggest something along the lines of "All three were stricken after the war in 1919 and scrapped"
 * Changed as suggested. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Remove the hyphens for F class and V class in the infobox
 * Already fixed. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Complement doesn't seem to be mentioned/cited in main text
 * Added into body with citation. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Background

 * Link Admiralty
 * Already fixed. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Design and description

 * "in December 1911" no need to repeat the year here
 * Removed. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * "S-class" remove hyphen (shan't repeat this!)
 * Should be done throughout now. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * A word or two of context as to why the S class is being compared to the British E-class submarine (that it's a contemporary design?)
 * Link bhp
 * Done. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Link bow
 * Done. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

History

 * Suggest changing to Service history, as isn't this whole article really history?
 * Done. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Do we know why the extra vessels were ordered?
 * It isn't in my sources, no. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I feel like the First World War should be mentioned a bit sooner than it first is
 * Link North Sea (is this the main location in which S1 served?)
 * Do we have any further details on service? They may have just been particularly useless or unlucky submarines, but I expected to read of at least one or two succesful sinkings/captures?
 * Nothing more from any sources I can find. Harrias  (he/him) • talk 08:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
