 * one other vessel, Zhenyuan, both of which were built in Germany Pipe Germany to the German Empire.

 * Just a question didn't China already use metric units?

 * on 20 October and crossed the Bohai Strait to Weihaiwei Unlink the strait.

 * remains of Dingyuan had been located and over 150 artifacts recovered Do we know where exactly?
 * No, unfortunately - the Xinhua article is pretty light on details. I'd assume it had sank into the mud of the sea floor
 * She has no legacy?
 * Nothing covered in the sources - unlike Zhenyuan, she wasn't used as a propaganda piece after the war.

Images
 * "File:Panzerschiff DINGYUAN (chin.) und ZHENYUAN (chin.) (Kiel 80.681).jpg" is it in PD in the US and there is no source?
 * The source is the Kiel - you can go to their website and search for it (see here)
 * "File:Meyers b14 s0454d.jpg" source isn't accessible for me?
 * I don't know that you really need it - the entire 4th edition is scanned to Commons and was published between 1885 and 1890, so it's PD in the US.
 * "File:TingYuen-AfterTheTorpedoBoatAttack.png" Date of publishing could be handy?
 * It's in the book citation

Sources
 * Some ISBNs have hyphens others not.
 * Standardise the 10/13 ISBNs if possible.
 * All fixed.

Infobox That's anything from me. Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 11:46, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks CPA. Parsecboy (talk) 17:25, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
 * This looks great, I believe the source of "File:Meyers b14 s0454d.jpg" isn't important in a GAN but I think it could be handy to have a link which is not dead. I'll pass it, I'll also see you at Zhenyuan tomorrow. Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 19:46, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
